Clutch Issue

[dori34]

having a few issues with my clutch atm,

car is a r32 with a rb25 motor & a rb20 gearbox.

i believe rb20 & rb25 have the same clutch so i purchased a heavy duty kit from xtreme (r32 & r33 gtst have the same part#)

when fitted up to the car, it wont fit, its too big??!!!

so i went and got a exedy heavy duty (rb20 & 25 the same shiet as well) and that doesn't fit either..

so what bloody clutch do i need that will fit my car??!!!!!

rb20-rb25 are defintly the same so both should have fitted.

All i can think of is that you didn't install it right or you have a different gearbox. Post pics.

How is it "too big"?

[dori34]

it fits in fine but its too big for the flywheel .

what i had to do was get my standard clutch sent off to be measured. hope all goes wel coz this has taken fken 5 days to do!!!

when i went from rb20 - 25. i used the 20 flwheel + clutch + gear box and had no probz. maybe the clutch they sent u is wrong...

I have an RB30 with rb25 gearbox and used the 20 flywheel and clutch.

I've also had a few rb20 gearbox's up behind it and no issues.

[dori34]

thats what i was wondering. so i dont know why it doesnt fit.

i tried a rb20/25 exedy clutch as well with the same issue.

they had to send my old clutch away to get measured.

the new exedy clutch i got that fit had the part #

NSK-6052HD

Alt: 225-63HD

Desc: 225mm Nissan (anyone knw what gbox this is to suit?)

i must say the difference between standard & HD is s**t all coz it feels the same.

"CONFIRMED- i have a r31 rb20et gearbox..

clutch part # matches on the exedy website....

AN SKYLINE 86-90 R31, 2.0 Ltr, RB20ET NSK-6052 BRG2148 PB-22

now, does anyone have one for sale in good condition??

I'd just go to the wreckers and ask for an R32 GTST 5speed. Many sell them for $500; shop around.

Some rip off merchants here in Adelaide attempt to slug $900 for a 20t box. :S

[dori34]

yeh the problem is i dont want a rb20 from a r32 cuz that means i gotta change to another clutch (i already just got a new exedy HD put in )

so really im after a R31 RB20ET (RB20DET from a R31 uses a different clutch)

is there any serial # to tell the gearbox's apart?

i wanna make sure i get a RB20ET not a RB20DET one

cheers
