Hi before i go out buying a clutch just wanting to know what you people think. I got a crate motor box and clutch for my s14 silvia. Was driving it and felt like the clutch was slippijng i dropped it a few times and then went around a corner went down to 2nd on high reves then it pulled back and was making sort of grinding noises not gear box grinding noises then at a set of lights when i took off from a complete stop it stalled then drove off then came to a complete stop. I couldn't move. I can put it in any gear with out the clutch while car is running doesn't make any grinding or any other noises also when i jack it up drive shaft or wheels don't spin. Would be my clutch correct! Got told by a neighbour is was the pressure plate shatered , trying to confirm. thanks.

you've spun the centre out of the clutch plate be my guess, methinks the pressure plate would have made a bit of noise before and after destruction.

sweet wanting a new clutch anyway, it wouldn't be the box at all correct!

would be the clutch plate in wrong way!

not to sure, when i put the new engine/box/clutch in drove fine, clutch was already in the box bought it complete from osaka. Think I may of shattered something!

He asked the same question back on the 5th. 2 Weeks later and he still hasn't dropped the box and pulled clutch and flywheel. Stop mucking about and get it done

The straps on the pressure plate have snapped/broken. I never buy anything from Osaka now after nearly parting with $400 for some cusco adjustables i won off here only to pick them up and they where leaking hard out lol. 'Nek Minut. he cleans them up and re sales them on here i noticed. I don't like businesses that operate like that! which is why he is apart of my blacklist.

No that sucks for the person who payed him out for damaged goods, He deals in secondhand Nissan stuff generally it was only really a 1off item that i was interested in which is why i know that they where the same set of shocks he has recently re sold.
Jap race are good i use them alot and nz performance, they are down off papanui road now in papanui
