clutch help

[blownVL]

ok a few days ago was feeling a slight vibration in the clutch, i knew something was gonna break so i kept driving and nothing happened. I parked up at my mates placed went inside for a hour got back in the car started it up and put the clutch in and the clutch pedal hit the floor and wouldnt come back.

Any thoughts im thinking maybe a oil issue or pump, its a r32 with a 25det but i think may be still running a 20 box.

Broken pivot , had a run of these lately .

[mitchy]

pedal will still come back up with a broken pivot though wont it?

my 33 broke the pivot, and i'm pretty sure the pedal action was fine, the grab point was just literally on the floor.

[evil1]

i say broken pivot.

[blownVL]

yep guys, broken pivot it was.

[Nickevox]

to many clutch kicks

[blownVL]

yeh could be the reason nik hahah

[Fujiwara13]

How much does fixing a broken pivot cost? Think i may have one as well =\

[mitchy]

About the same labour wise as a clutch change.
It's a box out job, and 50ish bucks for a nismo pivot.

Cheers for that =D

Would a new clutch kit include one? I have my car booked in at ASG for friday for a tune, but first it's got to actually drive, so I'm thinking about just getting a whole new clutch anyway.

A box out/in would be about 600-700 isn't it?

[mitchy]

nah, not part of a clutch kit.

what car/gearbox? if it's a skyline you should get away with it for a fair whack under that price, they are relatively easy boxes to remove in the scheme of things.

dont quote me though... i do all my own shiz, so i have no idea what workshops would charge.

[Fujiwara13]

Yeah it's just for a '33 man. I've never actually worked out how much it should cost, since when you go to the workshop they tell you something like "should be about $___ man" and invariably double it when you come back.

Thanks for the ino though, was getting worried about how much it'll cost to work out what's wrong

[DISTRBD]

Then you deal with fuckwit workshops if thats the case ..

[mitchy]

speak to the guys at ASG when you are there, they are pretty switched on.

[Fujiwara13]

Then you deal with fuckwit workshops if thats the case ..

Definitely. Got reccomended to them before I knew any better, got a fuel pump and a clutch done, both were overpriced, both fucked up and had to go back to get fixed.

Mitchy - Will do yeah, they seemed real straight up when I've been there. I've heard lots of good stories.

clutch kit is normally for 500-700 depending what type you go plus a few hundred for labour and machining and yeh like 20 for oem pivot
