Hi everyone...I am a newbie to this site and to Skylines, please bear with me if I sound stupid somtimes.

On to my first question

1. Is there a step by step guide on transmission removal and clutch replacement anywhere?

In the US we don't have many skylines so nobody knows anything about them that is why I am here.

Thanks

Not afaik, but they're not really any different to any other manual RWD car.

In a nutshell:

* Remove interior trim around shifter.

* Unbolt steel bit that hold the shifter in place.

* Pop circlip out of the bottom of the shifter, then the shifter will come out.

* Go under the car, undo the tailshaft (both on the GTR), remove speedo cable/clutch slave and the plug or two (can't remember) that's on top of the box.

* Support the gearbox (we have a gearbox stand but a jack with a stable top will do)

* Remove bellhousing bolts.

* Slid gearbox directly back, and out of the clutch setup.

* Unbolt the pressure plate from the flywheel. The clutch plate is in the middle.

* Replace clutch/pressure plate and machine flywheel as required. If you get oil on the surfaces, clean them with brake cleaner.

* Put the clutch back together, trying to centre the clutch plate over the hole in the centre of the flywheel. Note that the flywheel and pressure plate (iirc) only go on one way, so don't be alarmed if the holes don't line up the first time :D Just keep rotating them until it all works.

* Reverse the rest of the process to put everything else back together.

That's from memory after doing half a dozen Skyline clutches, it should be pretty close :)

Edit: Just looked at the site in your sig. Hell yeah :)
