Well. My poor R32 has developed a driveline problem. It seems the clutch wont disengage the gearbox fully. I drove down half of my street in 2nd gear with foot on the clutch. It crunches 90% of gearchanges, and to put it in 1st the car needs to be switched off, select gear, then start again. When you take off it shudders and makes a clunking sound. Been talking to Dave and he has suggested checking out the clutch fork, slave, and pivot.

Have you bled clutch correctly? Do it on a hoist (like I did) so you can see the amount of fork travel at the slave cylinder. And bleed it from ALL bled valves. My Stagea has 3.

:thumbsup:

I did bleed the clutch, albeit on axle stands, and it all seemed to be doing its job. I will have a look if I get time, but Ive got an appointment, need to finish a uni assignment thats due today and work. Cheers guys.

blokes just throwing it out there small cruise happening sat night at bunnings parafield 7pm just carpark to carpark deal anyones welcome should be a majority xr6t's but we get 1 or 3 skylines rock up so if u want a fair quick paced run sat night cum down and talk shit and say hi

Alot of SA people are going to the Kadina Show and Shine this weekend, so you might not get much of a response. And maybe dont include the meet location, unless you want unwanted visitors, and i dont just mean cops! :thumbsup:

easiest way to bleed nissan clutches is to have 4 hours and plenty of beer spare, or buy a 1pc braided line from master to slave and p1ss the balance block and damper pipe off. Most good workshops will follow the factory service manual and pressure bleed it with a vacuum device :thumbsup:

I had a similar issue, didn't crunch gears but was sticky as f**k. Clutch fork had spun on the thrust bearing and the slave was pushing the fork on an angle etc etc, it was really messy. It was all replaced before any serious dramas but frusterated the f**k out of me.

Quick Q:

Whats the main differences/advantage between R32 GTST front calipers and R33 GTST front calipers?

Is it simply the 32 is just for 280mm rotors and 33 is just for 297mm rotors. Any differences in piston sizes?

so found our new puppy after looking for a good month, bullmastiff x staffy.

only thing is, its in pt lincoln god dammit.

looks like im going for a drive next weekend

Congrats! Looks like a beautiful puppy. Please make sure you train and exercise it properly and love it dearly.

hahaha mastiff's get huge staffy is a medium dog

personally i wouldn't buy cross that's when you get temperament problems

Sorry Steve but I'm going to call bullshit on that statement.

I have volunteered at the Lonsdale RSPCA in the boarding section for over 18 months now where we have a minimum of 70 dogs every day and up to 120/130 dogs per day on long weekends. After looking after, walking, playing with, feeding and grooming 1000s of dogs I can tell you that temperament problems have nothing to do with cross breeding.

Dogs are the most loving and loyal creatures (to humans) on the planet. Temperament problems that can occur will usually be due to the humans that come in contact with the dog, its surroundings and everyday life, if the dog has been attacked before, or in some cases mental illness (just like humans have).

As someone who studied genetics I can tell you that 'pure bred' dogs have suffered from generations of in-breeding, usually grandfather & granddaughter mating, and IIRC in some breeds there are less than 50 variances in their genetic code, ie they are closer to extinction than the Panda Bear. I will need to search to provide a reference for that statement though. Cross breeds vary the genetics of the dog and are therefore likely to live longer and suffer less illness. I had all this info on my old C: drive which died so I'll have to search for the books again to elaborate further.

FYI

****WANTING TO BORROW****

    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
    • You can get them with the worm drive rotator but I was too tight to pay another $250-$300 so manual labour it is! I don't think it will be too hard to rotate though. 
    • Sag as in the windows start to slowly open themselves, or they're just slow to go up/down with engine off?
    • It looks like it needs a big worm gear drive on it to control the rotating, not a few sloppy pins!
    • As Duncan said, first there was OBD, which few cars used, then came OBD2.   Now an interesting point, OBD2 isn't even for what you want to do. OBD2 is for emissions testing. There is some sensor data on OBD2, but it's up to the manufacturer what they're putting on it. Most scan tools operate on UDS, which like OBD2 is a standard built on-top of CAN. UDS specifies how to structure a message, what very limited things mean such as "read memory address" but it does not specify what is stored in which memory address, that is all up to the manufacturer. You either a scan tool compatible with that vehicle, or to know how to reverse engineer all the data, which can take a VERY long time and a lot of vehicles to get it right. Oh and then the manufacturer does a firmware update and changes what's where... Ask me how I know that as fact Oh, and by the time you've got the scan tool that supports all the manufacturers stuff, well, you're back at "But a consult cable and the Nissan software" The main difference being most manufacturers software these days works with the same hardware readers, as the readers are built to support J2534 which is another standard for how the PC communicates with the tool to make it do specific things on the car...
