Just putting a new clutch in everything going really smooth untill everything was undone and the gearbox was coming of ok and then just stopped and wont budge can see the flywheel teeth but wont go past this point. didnt wanna force.

I think it is something to do with the pull clutch setup can someone help out with this what do i need to do?

Car is just currently hanging 4 up in the air on the hoist and the tranny chilling on the tranny stand half out.

Its all good found this clip on youtube on how to take the realese bearing out just a simple as sticking a flat head screw driver in a giving it a twist. got the box out

but still got a question should i get a new lightened flywheel or get this one machined? it will be used in hillclimbs

yes its the clip for the release bearing on the pull type clutch. but you already know that.

with the flywheel - a lightened flywheel makes a noticeable difference. however I used to run lightened standard flywheel but I chucked it out when I found hariline cracks on it. If you want to know how bad that could be imagine 12kg spinning at 8000rpm breaking and leaving the motor without warning.

Grab a billet lightened flywheel instead. Its just not worth the risk of having your legs cut off

12kgs - WTF? I thought stock was 10kgs. I got a 5.5kg one (This one IIRC), but there were also 4.5kg ones.

      R34 GTT front hood lip

      By AdiR34 · Posted

      Another thought on this OLD topic: When you paint your bonnet lip, leave a small unpainted back lip/line along the back of the lip, where it rests on the bumper. That way, the line in the back is much more prominent than the gaps in the front/under the lip - and it breaks the hood-to-bumper connection at the "correct" place, when comparing to a GTR. I'm gonna do this with mine this week, so stay tuned for pics!

      Potential MAP Reference Point

      By Radical_Goodspeed · Posted

      So I'm in the final stages of assembling my single turbo RB30/26 and had a question regarding MAP reference points.  I've seen several recommendations such as tapping the cylinder 2/3 ITB, tapping the intake manifold at cylinder 2/3, or using a point on IAC. First two are doable but require permanently modify part and the third is "out" as I plan to delete the IAC.  All that to say my question is can I used the "bleeder" in the center of the ballance tube as a MAP Reference? I'm running a catch can so I don't need it for the PCV system. My thought process is it "pulls" from all 6 cylinder, and it's between the ITB and the cylinders making it ideal for MAP reference according to what I can find. Thoughts?

      Some sense has prevailed! What kind of idiot spends money on intake, heads, and cams for a N/A motor in 2025? Lol. What maroons. Source:I am King Maroon.

      So, cams are not getting installed......yet  Had a good chat with MX5 Mania about intakes, they recommend not to get ITB's, they recommend a plenum style for the NC So, one of these puppies is being ordered, with a larger TB to suit, when it arrives from the US the car will go in for the cams and intake I'm also getting a fancy rear box bit for the air filter box which will suit the new TB size

      Never ending fuel pump drama

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Clamp meter is pointless. Unless you're trying to keep average current under a set value for some weird reason (maybe you undersized your wiring?), then you'll get no useful info. What you're really trying to target is the flow of fuel coming back to the tank. You want some, but not a lot. You also want to make sure fuel pressure remains stable.   So, fuel pressure gauge, and fuel flow gauge. Set it up from that.
