Hey guys.. Ive got a r34 NA 25gt (as the user name suggests)

Basicly.. its not noticable at all whilst im already driving, but it seems that when im in first gear taking off at a set of lights, i need to give a considerable amount more gas to get the car started.. If i try creep forward in first gear with just the clutch, it struggles to find that friction point and 1/3 times will stall.. I am pretty sure its the clutch slipping but is there anything else that it could be ??

Some background info also: when staging up at the creek and choping up a burnout prior to my run :banana: .. i find that after the burnout, for the next 15-20 seconds, my car attempting to drive forward in 1st gear in basicly behaves like its in neutral...

Can you guys please help me out on possible issues and how i can fix them ??

cheers

when you replace the clutch can you please post up the specs of the clutch you used?

6 or 9 bolt clutch cover

clutch diameter (225mm or 240mm)

and push/pull type?

ive been wondering exactly what sort of clutch the r34 2.5l n/a runs

cheers

x2 actually, my clutch aint gonna last forever, good to know what sort it is before i pull the box off to change it (if that time ever comes!)

      Next pic will probably bring back Charlie's PTSD So yes, pump is back out. I hooked the fuel return up to a hose into a container to flush out the first litre or 2, jumped the Fuel Pump relay and.......nothing.... Turns out the pump I had pulled out, checked, cleaned everything....was dead.  I hadn't actually hooked 12v to it to check it worked before I put it back in. Anyway...Neil had kept the old pump which still worked, so I just swapped it back in. All good, flushed the lines out, ready to start

      OK....so something that works like it said on the tin! Fitting the pressure feed into the car was an absolute PITA because the oil filter is in the standard location and then there is a fitting to run to the oil cooler. On the other side between the filter and the steering box is the standard oil pressure sender (not working for some reason, something to check) and 2 tapped 1/8 BSP threads for the oil temp and pressure gauges. Unfortunately it is really tight in there and it took a hours of stuffing around to get a t fitting to connect the priming pump and retain the gauge sender.  Also, the Aeroflow sump has some massive drain plug (needs a 32mm spanner) so I couldn't use the regular fitting there either. In any case....once it was all hooked up, like magic priming.mp4 15 sec, 3 bar of oil pressure. Left it running a couple of minutes to push through everything, looked good

      Yeah the latest style kit has been trouble free, I've done a fair few klm on it including pushing a bit on low fuel and it hasn't been surging (that's not an endorsement for race use, I haven't tried that low, or that hard cornering!). For street use it has been a good thing, handles the high current OK, only real issue is it is not cheap

      So, how do you feel about the Frenchys surge tank setup @Duncan? Have you had a chance to try it out more? The sketchy wiring in my fuel pump setup has decided to melt and die and I'm looking for a solid replacement now. My fuel hat is toast so the Frenchys kits providing it all look promising.

      Yeh... literally every time i jump on a forum, see an instagram post or see an engine bay at a car show, i get an idea and add it to my 'to do' list. So what started off as, hey can u just make a couple of intake hard pipes because my dumbass bought the wrong apexi kit, blew out into a 2 week job including braided brake lines & custom bash kit for the front lip haha.  Getting Luke from A4E engineering to make a full custom exhaust with a controllable aes dump valve so i can actually switch between quiet and loud, because right now its just loud all day every day. Then after that go and get the tune redone flex e85 & 98 as i get bugger all milage from e85, makes going for longer drivers difficult
