Ok, now I have come to the end of my tether in relation to this...

I have called quite a few Clutch places on the Northside, and they keep saying they won't give me a quote cause they have to change pressure plates and clutch plates and they don't know what is in them...

BULLSHIT, the fact is I could change it myself, the thing is I want it done properly...with the flywheel machined.

I have a Daiken HD clutch kit ready to go without someone to install it.

Can anyone tell me their good bad or otherwise stories of places!!!

Cheers

Neill

Its a little difficult reading your post what you actually are asking!

If you want to know who to goto with regards to ripping the g/box out, removing the old clutch and throwing in the new one, then email me at [email protected] !!!!! I have a good mechanic i have used for 2 clutch installs and they are very good. BUT he is over the southside, so may not be appropriate for you.

i got my clutch (heavy Duty Daiken) at slacks creek brake and clutch

was awesome and cheap (still is awesome)

im sure they would fit a clutch for you

they machined my flywheel while they were at it

Have you actually asked them for quotes on fitting a clutch kit supplied by you

That is an affirmative...

I know what I am asking for, pull old clutch out, machine fly and install new clutch...

I already have a Daiken HD as described bought it from Coventry as I have contacts there...but only one place I have rung gave me a quote of $400 incl machining which is a little high...

And I would like it to be done on the Northside, was just wondering if anyone has had experience other than Nick's etc

Have only dealt with Nick's- all good clutches, and i got my sisters mechanic to install the clutch & machine the flywheel. Any competent mechanic should be able to do the job if its a basic heavy duty clutch (daiken excedy) for around 200-250 bucks....

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
