I went and checked mine just for you - I used a wilwood clutch master. Keep in mind the clutch reservoir they provide is _SHIT_. It leaked many times and in the end I used a commodore clutch reservoir for the fluid.

Thank you mate, do you have any pics of how close it is? Or a part number? No rush mate

Sorry, I did check but it's so damn close down there that I honestly can't get close enough to find a part number or anything like that. I'm trying to remember where I sourced it from or how, but it could be that it either was provided when I bought the gearbox or something along those lines. I know you definitely need one because the clutch doesn't disengage properly without one, and you definitely want to be checking that a million times and measuring when you use a starter motor relocation kit.

We assumed we wouldn't need 2 spacers (there was one with the starter relocaiton kit) and found out my clutch was not disengaging... ever. Which lead to a clutch failure at the track down the line.

I just checked my messages and I believe the guys that helped with the fab sourced the Wilwood item (they do many T56/LS swaps into things) and used this master because they pretty much always use that master because they know it works and don't have to rely on converting OEM things.

So my answer is "Something Wilwood that is suitable for a T56"

Mal Wood, most of the details are in the build thread (which really kicks off mostly with the LS Conversion).

If it was a track only car, and you can delete aircon, PS, don't care about other things etc you MAY MAY not need to. I needed to. 😛

    • Thanks for the reply, So i've continued playing around, and fitted the injector adaptors onto the injector, the fuel rail is not able to be mounted now as the injectors sit a bit further out. I suppose the point of the adaptors is so that the injector nozzle isn't so deep into the intake? I suppose 1mm extra on the o-ring would do it but still can't mount the rail onto the intake haha. Waiting on a reply from Aeroflow I'm sure there's something stupid that I'm missing...
    • I have a radium fuel rail on my Greddy manifold and used the supplied radium fuel injector to manifold adapters (The round green things pictured). I did always wonder if you could just go ahead and use the second lower hole like you're doing... Wouldn't thicker o-rings solve your issue?    
    • From what I've seen and experienced first hand with those powder extinguishers, they're good to use to break a window and escape the car, and half the time then do f**k all to stop a fire. You just need much more than 1KG worth of powder. Not to mention, half the time it's an engine bay fire, and you can't easily, and do not want to completely open the bonnet, so you're left pretending to be an American Infantry... Spray and Pray baby!   And then 100% that shit is really destructive afterwards!   Realistically, those little ones at a race track might help you keep the fire from growing and give the fire marshal / truck a chance to actually get to you with their multiple large bottles.   For a road car, these days, prepare to deboard as quickly as humanly possible, and move to safety. Allow insurance to fix replace it (unless it's like a rare classic etc, then do nearly everything possible to save it!) Keep the little extinguisher with you to help protect other things around you from burning while you stand there singing "How can we sleep while our beds are burning?"   Secondly, powder extinguishers I freaking hate for indoor use, (this isn't really relevant to a car) as you will get a powder fog around you, and it can be disorientating.   When I did fire training when at BlueScope Steel, they have (had?) their own fire brigade on site. We did all the training, and at the end we were told, "If it's an indoor fire, and you need to use a powder extinguisher, we as the fire brigade would rather you just exit the building, you're more likely to get lost in the smoke and powder fog than do much help, so just GTFO" And pretty much that was what they said for most other fires too, grab extinguisher, if it's much more than paper in a bin fire, use extinguisher to get you and others out of the building to safety...   Part of me wishes when my Skyline caught alight many moons ago, I let insurance sort it out, instead of putting the fire out... part of me now says "But I've saved a classic before it was a classic!"
    • Hi all,  I have a older model of the Greddy Front facing intake on an RB25DET NEO Head. I've bought aeroflows fuel rail and injector kit (1000cc Bosche injectors) and I'm unsure if the fitment is correct. The injector o-rings fit in the intake hole but it's not snug. I can very easily rotate the injectors even when the fuel rail is mounted. The kit also came with multiple adaptors, they dont make it any more snug and using them raises the injectors up and i cant mount the fuel rail. I hope this makes sense I've asses a few photos.    Thanks so much guys.
