So I Think My Clutch Just Blew :( On My Daily.

[brn_20B]

Hey guys just bought my car recently like 1 month ago and already blew my clutch, noticed a bit of spooling and revving and the power wasn't going to the wheels but in the end while i was showing it to the mechanic mate of mine it decided to blow, so my mate being a home mechanic cannot do it at home so...

I'm looking for someone that is able to do the job cheap and reliable, ill probably buy a heavy duty clutch now but it sucks honestly, being out of a car for a while too ..

anyways guys best place to get a clutch and possibly installed, my dad has a trade card and while i've got the car popped open any other things i should invest in, my car is stock and running 10PSI

cheers

EDIT: didnt give any information on what application power ETC.

R33 GTS-T S2

MODS:

Cat Back Fujitsubo 3" exhaust 4" tip

Hybrid FMIC

Turbosmart T boost controller 10PSI

thats pretty much it lol deleted the stupid atmospheric bov.

I wanted to just go OEM on the clutch $200 (ON JUST JAP), but yeah i think i might go for the exedy i was reading up and didnt find too much for a stocky sorta setup. and can someone please tell me how much labour im looking at and if i have to get the flywheel with the clutch kit or should i just get mine machined?

cheers guys.

Exedy make the standard clutch so whichever one you pick as long as you don't go over its power or toque limitations then you will be fine. For everything under 190rwkw I would put in the standard NSK-7056 or the NSK-6797 but everything over that but under 240-250rwkw go the heavy duty.

Labour you will expect 3.5hrs

Flywheel Machine can vary but usually about $50-70 depending on who you go to. I charge $66 but I've gotta drive 15mins to the machinist lol.

Replace the rear main seal with a genuine one at about $65 and put in a new spigot bush at about $5. Neither of those come in the clutch kit.

It might also help people if you tell them what location you are in?

Hey mate sorry totally forgot... I'm in Sydney cheers for the help I have a trade card since my dads a mechanic but hes too old to work On my car nOw so yeah.. Cheers I'll look around

Trade card. That's funny.

Really, unless your dad is mates with the workshop you go to, that's worth nothing. Just pay what the workshop asks without trying to pull any mate's rates shenanigans on them.

But mates rates is like the bartering system. We use the bartering system don't we?

[GTSBoy]

Well, true mate's rates is probably more like bartering than discount, in that it is more a case of doing favours for each other with no charge. But I suspect that you weren't trying to make that point, were you?

exedy HD should be fine- im expecting it to hold in mine with 300+kw, not to sure on part number but i think its the HD button- Cost about $520

See how we go haha

Ended up going to the usual big garage for imports doing a service on the box cost of organic gd exeady was 450 +3 hours labour total cost around 8-900 mark + rear main seal so yeah.
