Well first Ill brighten some peoples days

Got my Walbro 255 put in runs greatGot a new Master Clutch Cylinder, new slave, new mirror, new brake booster, and new Temp controls.

Alot of new freebies from my friends parts car and I might get a Power steering pump too!!

Now for the crappy BS F**kin sh*t news.....

Going out to test out the Walbro pump and we are driving along giving it good amount of hell and go to shift to 5th at 100 mph and the Ball joint that the forked arm that disengages the pressure plate snaps off and now I have no clutch so I have to drop in a new transmission on Sat.... I mean this is a solid piece of metal that the piece pivits on and it BROKE OFF!!! God it makes me mad!!!! Well anyway I found a transmission off a SR at a friends house for 350 so Im buying it.

The pivot ball ?

Just get a new one. Or better yet, get an upgraded hardened one. Why would you need a new transmission ?

you can pick up a new nismo pivot for peanuts from some of our vendors. Better than plunking $350 on a transmission

Where and how long would it take? I have to have the car back in 4 days. I have the transmission here and now.

Links please

Also where could I find a pivot ball for a sr20 locally?

It's as easy as removing the transmission for a clutch.



Here is the upgraded part they mentioned. It helps prevent it from failing again.http://www.courtesyparts.com/M...CLTPV

Or you could go by a Nissan dealer and ask for a Clutch release fork pivot for a KA24DE (91-98 240sx).
