help.... clutch problem with pics.

[lisburnGT]

hi,

i dont really now the best way of explaining this so i took a few pics..

basically was driving up the road and heard a "ping" when i pressed the clutch pedal.. and it stayed on the floor, but the clutch was still engaged as i manged to drive it home..

had a look about and noticed this. could anyone tell me what i need to do to fix it or what i need..









cheers for your help..

just from the pics it looks like you need a new slave cyclinder, but you also need to take the transmission off and make sure the clutch and pivot fork arent messed up

Yeah man, I'm with ^ - looks like that arm is twisted way too much for it to still be attached. You shouldn't be able to move that arm around much (?? can you). Here's a pic for reference:



The slave blowing may have been a result of the arm disconnecting - either way a slave cyl isn't much at all, but that's the least of your worries.

Let us know if you need help pulling engine/transmission. If you aren't up to it this should/could be a simple fix for any small shop.

yea thought is was a bit too bent..

and yes i can still move it. it slides in and out and back and forth..

Looks like pivot bolt snapped. Remove dust cover and check this part.

same thing happen to my Clutch slave while driving. if that lever moves any direction besides left and right, the small bolt pictured above may be snapped inside you bell housing.

PS - is that NISMO version supposed to be more durable than after market/OE?

im sure its just a "replacement" part dubbed Nismo.

you prob just put the clutch fork on wrong.it always takes me a couple mins to figure out how to get it on right..granted ive dropped my transmission/ transmissions on 240s 9-10 times

have fun pulling your transmission

If and when you do pull the transmission make sure you raise the car up as much as possible and use 2 jacks for the transmission. Its alot easier than restling with a 150 pound transmission (pun intended). And be sure to have alot of time on your hands atleast a full day. I did the clutch on my nissan pickup for the first time and it took me a full week. But thats with me working and atleast 3 days to figure out why the hell it wouldnt slide back in. have fun!
