Just wanted to say thanks to stealth-z for his help. thanks again manStealth-Z wrote:Here is a document with the part numbers on the 3rd page for the cover assembly, cover gasket and slave cylinder. The new cover assembly comes with the pivot ball and center seal. If using a used cover, it may be a good idea to replace the seal. After all it is rubber and the Z32's are how old now? The part number is 32114-Y4000 and lists for about $4.55. http://www.fairladyzg.com/PDF/PullToPushConv.pdf
You are quite welcome, I pleased to see information put out goes to good use and is confirmed to work by others. About a month after making the PDF I picked up a JDM center cover. Interesting how the casting for the pivot ball is a mirror to the Z32.fast_s14 wrote:

Yeah thats no problem you can use them.Stealth-Z wrote:You are quite welcome, I pleased to see information put out goes to good use and is confirmed to work by others.

There is a height difference between the JDM and Z32 pivot ball. The washer under the Z32 ball raises it to the level of the JDM. Not that is probably matters much. The way your's is tapped out eliminates the need for the washer.
Here is the Z32 Pivot Ball part number.30537-40P00 Pivot Ball
Do you mind if I use your photos and integrate it into my PDF file? I never have considered it to be finished.
rb25det push type front cover: 32110-05U11.. about $30, comes with an OEM pivot ball installed too. up to you if you want to change to a nismo pivot ball.Stealth-Z wrote:Glad you chimed in on this one. I have wondered about the pivot ball height for some time. Was not sure if the washer thickness would be that much of an effect on the engagement/disengagement. As you say, it would suck to put it all together and not work right.Do you happen to have the JDM part number?

He says its a JDM part?? But from the write up (this thread) it seems like he just takes the Z32 front cover, moves the pivot ball to the other hole, bolts er up and calls it a day am i not correct?gawdzilla wrote:i have an r34 rb25det transmission, not sure if its neo or not. it is definitely pull type. i am doing a conversion to push type so i can use my push type clutch.
in order to do this, the most important part is the front cover assembly. it is about $35, and is a JDM only part. it comes w/ a new pivot ball already screwed in. the remaining parts, c-clip, pivot fork, TO bearing, spring, etc. can be found as USDM (mostly matched against the Z). the entire conversion should cost about $100-150.
you also need to drill and tap the bell housing to flip the slave cylinder around. however, the casting for the holes is already there so you know exactly where to put it.
ONCE you do all of this, you should be able to use any of the readily available push type clutches (namely z32 n/a)
When i did mine, i bought a new cover (jdm only part) to bolt in. in this thread, the writeup taps the existing push-type cover(step 6). you can do either but i chose to buy the cover because i was worried about the height at which the pivot ball would sit. didn't want to install it and find out my pivot ball sat too low or something.ST240 wrote:Ok im slightly confused here.

The process would be identical for the neo bellhousing correct?

Ah awsome man thanks for clearing that up. where did you source this jdm cover from? do you have a part number?
