Hey, recently my *Insert bad word here* of a clutch decided to stuff up. This car is a 1994 GTS25T R33 btw.

Now, I had it looked at and it turned out to be my Slave Cylinder... So I had that taken out and upgraded with new seals etc.

Today, my mate and myself put the Cylinder back in and bled the clutch etc...

And the problem now... Everything is back the way it should be... But I still don't have normal pressure in my clutch! We have bled it around 15 times now... And still nothing! The most we have had is 3/4 pressure back in the clutch but still not enough to put it into gears...

We have done everything we can think of... I'm running out of patience with this car -.- I really need it back on the road!

I was hoping that someone on here has had the same problem or knows what's happening, because we are completely dumbfounded by this... We have changed several Slave cylinders and bled afew clutches and everything has turned out the way it should, but not this one...

Any suggestions/Help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

sounds like there is going to be a second issue with the clutch. it could be that you have bumped the clutch fork and it isn't sitting properly on the bearing, or the pivot bolt. get a torch and shine it through the robber seal where the clutch fork goes into the box and see if everything looks ok.

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
