hello all i am actually from the states but i live here in japan and this forum came up when i did a search as i just purchased a bnr32 gtr. i was looking for forums to help with some issues the car is having and figured what the heck these guys speak in a language i can understand!! maybe someone can point me in the right direction i am looking for a clutch for my skyline as the throwout bearing has went out. it make hoorible noises when the clutch i pressed in. im thinking that i have an unsprung clutch in the car the previous owner just said it was a triple plate, i am driving this ca daily and the bearing noise is driving me crazy as is the no friction zone in the cars clutch. im looking for a more friendly to drive clutch that will hold 447.397632 kilowatts. i think i have that right. any information is greatly appreciated and nice to meet all of you!!!!

I got mine for 3k. do not plate it for california unless you wanna fork out another 8k for the red tape.

I have a nismo coppermix and I am happy with it. Check the clutch cylinder and see if it is operating properly. I did that and the clutch noise went away when pressing the clutch. I now only have a whirling sound when it is not depressed so its probably the TOB.

Where are you stationed at?

damn your going to pay off the ying yang for shipping from the mainland ^_^

I recommend the nismo clutch, might as well grab a new TOB. Ask the Hobby shop where

you can get your flywheel resurfaced if your going to slap a new clutch.

im close to camp foster

stationed on buckner.

okinawa.

      High temp brake fluid?

      yeah I've never understood that either.... And to answer an earlier question, I write the date on open bottles and throw them if more than 12 months old (which they almost always are, because I don't need to bleed them unless I'm changing lines/calipers etc in between)

      Nah, the one that hit the boot was a big steel locker, around 6 foot height, 4 foot wide and 2 foot deep, empty it weighs about 15kg and had about that amount of stuff in it The photo didn't give a good representation of the actual damage, the large ding on the passenger side was about a inch deep, the one on the driver was about 1/2 inch deep, right on the curve, where the inner boot frame doesn't let you get behind it with a dolly Basically the same issue with getting behind the damage on the centre of the boot We could have filled it all with bog, but my OCD would be triggered every time I looked at it, knowing what hides beneath  As for the locker, I did get the shits with it and put it in the scap metal bin, but, I pulled it out and it is now sitting in the garage at home full of car servicing stuff, cleaning gear and random tools, it's going to pay for it's indiscretions

      Whilst I typically don't cheap out on things, if I can save some money, like $1000, on a clean straight panel, that gives me $1000 to spend on other stuff, basically free money really 🤔 🤣

      Is the toolbox that damaged the boot seal the same item that fell on the car during the storm a while back?

      Who are you to deny yourself? I’ve said this many times to myself and apart from getting what I really want, I go quiet for a while whilst working out what I just did to my savings and how will I afford what it cost, then, next payday…
