R33 Squeaky Clutch

[blinksta]

Hi,

I have a Jim Berry race clutch and a noise has just appeared which is when the clutch is not depressed it makes a sort of squeal, depress the clutch and the noise goes away i have searched the forum but everything relates to a noise when the clutch is depressed it isn't slipping and i can go through all the gears just fine even if i give it a little it grabs and goes to gear just when it is not in use i get this squeal very annoying can anyone suggest what is going on??

sweet so just the pedal or go nuts with a can of WD40 because it does happen on idle if i just leave the car run eg: turbo timer wait

WD40, and maybe automotive grease. maybe its a lose nut?

im confused...not depressed means its not not pressed which means its pressed then? and it goes away when its not pressed? if its a whirring sound its probably the thrust bearing, but that goes away when the clutch is pressed (not depressed?) ha....

ha...well in that case if its making a whirring hissing sound and not a sqeaky (rusty gate) sound then its probably the thrust bearing. quite common
