hey guys i have just installed a os twin plate clutch in to 31 with an rb25 neo and running a rb20 silvertop gear box. i changed the thrust bearing for the right one and stuff, but once i bolted every thing up i tried putting the slave cylender on and the fork is way too far forward. like i can get one bolt in it but just not the other. The fork and everything is in right way so dont know what it could be, any ideas? ive tried releasing the nipple too.

thanks

It's simple. The clutch has a different throw than the last. The way to overcome this is to modify the slave cylinder rod length. Shorten the rod inside the slave. Take it out and hold the slave cylinder back from the gearbox lining the bolt holes up by eye and then have a look at how much of the rod you need to shorten so it sits comfortably in the fork, then cut it accordingly. Dont make it a tight fit tho, you dont want your fork with constant pressure on the thrust bearing all the time if you can help it.

Yeah i tried that already i cut the rod so it is pressing against the fork firmly but not too hard. Then i put the gearbox in gear and put the clutch in and tried spinning the back wheels when they were off the ground but they are locked....and obviously spin freely when in netrual.

i thought maybe i cut too much off so i tried putting spaces but its still not engaging.

Any ideas?

Maybe i just need the right casrrier?

    • Hello everyone. I believe I have s1 headlights but I just wanted to make sure and getting confirmation from you all. Thanks in advance for your help!
    • Crazy how good the aero bar looks compared to the stock one
    • Yes, but you will need to rewire all the things that are different. CAS, coils, etc. Yes, but there is no IAT. What? You can use anything you like. It just has to be hooked up so that it will work.     Or are you wanting to just plug and play without having to do any thinking/work?
    • It's been a little over a decade since I bought the S15. As I did on my socials, I'll share some of my favorite pictures from over the years further below. If you haven't realised, pretty much all the pictures in my posts are ones I've taken.  In terms of updates, I don't have pictures, but I acquired a near-perfect pair of fog lights from a friend of mine, so those got swapped in for the pair I already had. As for the JZX110, I just got it back from being fixed. A few weeks back, I was on the highway when I suddenly drove over something with very little time to react. It was probably the size of a soccer ball, but it went under the car and banged into the underside pretty loudly. I pulled over and realized the fluid leaking was fuel, and of course, it was right near my exhaust. This required replacing the fuel tank. If you happen to be in the same predicament, thankfully this car shares a fuel tank with the JZS171, IS200, and IS300, so it wasn't too painful to replace. Enjoy some pictures as mentioned above, including the carnage from the fuel tank and a bonus picture I came across which shows how ridiculously shiny the Bugels are on the 110. So many more pictures I could share of the S15 but this will do for today, enjoy.
