Clutch has shit itself.

I need a new/decent second hand one asap. I use my car for work so have to get it going tomorrow (saturday).

Can anyone point me in the direction of someone with clutch? I've had no luck looking here or on the WWW thus far.

It will need to be cheap, unless who ever is selling is happy to get some money today and the rest next week (ie 300, maybe 400 today, the rest on Monday).

Please help!

Either post here, pm me or call/sms on 0418 994 629

Cheers,

Aaron.

I bought my last from these guys off ebay:

and when I contacted them direct:

gave me discount and free hat over the ebay cost...

http://northernbrakeandclutch.com.au/ for contact details

so that should suit your under $400 this weekend...

alternatively you could use:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Nissan-Skyline-RPM-...=item3ca4beb6d9

but I have never dealt with these guys and no idea on quality of that brand..

Thanks guys.

I got one from Bundoora.

It's only a standard clutch, and I would have preferred a heavy duty one, but I couldn't to Northern Brake and Clutch in Sunshine unfortunately.

Just had to drive the car from Skye to Bundoora then Bundoora to Hurstbridge with no clutch.

I'm knackered.

They're a decent brand CI...we use them at work all the time never heard a bad thing after selling one. Catalogue and range is fantastic.

Did the change today.

Old clutch was an RPM HD clutch. It was totally rooted. Like I think the most rooted clutch I've seen come out of a car.

Did a GB oil change too. Wow. Metallic paste spewed out when I pulled out the plug, along with bits of a syncho which I's say is from my 4th gear.

I must say, R33s are very, very easy to do clutches on. The whole thing done in about 2.5 leisurely hours. Of course having a hoist and well equipped workshop helped.

    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
