hi all

i am having a great deal of bother with my R32

GTR clutch

was driving fine but slowly became hard to select gears.

it got to the point that the car would creep forward in gear when clutch is totally depressed.

i adjusted the clutch peddle and all problems went away for about 100km's but have come back worse than ever.

the clutch will not disengage at all now

start the car in neutral and can not select any gears

start the car in gear with clutch peddle depressed and car lurches forward!!!!

i have replaced clutch master, clutch slave (nismo) and have removed the damper system with the use of a braided line.

still same problem

the clutch peddle feels good, the clutch slave has good movement.

So to summarize

clutch is Direct Racing twin plate

clutch pressure plate fingers look good

clutch pivot does not seem to be broken

entire hydraulic system is new and been bled many times

the only thing i can think of is the clutch fork

but i can not see any sines of damage

i pulled the gearbox out for the car 550km's ago when i rebuilt motor and all looked good and has been working fine for 500km's and now this please help me

There is a washer behind the pivot that can cause hassle with some twin plates. You might need to remove it to give the release bearing more room to engage/disengage.

Second thing that springs to mind is the clutch pedal adjustment, see if you can move the pick up point that way.

And I guess the other thing is make sure you don't have a leak in the clutch line itself, you did mention that you have done the slave and master, but perhaps you could be losing pressure through the line itself?

It may not be the answer, but that might give you some more things to check out!!

I have had a bit more of a think about it. MAKE SURE THE CLUTCH PLATES ARE AROUND THE RIGHT WAY INSIDE THE CLUTCH! It sounds obvious but our apprentice did this a while ago and thats what it turned out to be. This might help you out.
