im sick of the heavyest clutch in the world! couple that with the engine hesitation when you set off its begining to piss me off id rather have gone for a TT auto instead of an NA manual!! same price most of them so my advice to ppl is sod a manual box there knackering!! (unless its just mine)

 

i always thaut jap cars were reliable? are Z's the exception to the rule? mates na supra never brakes down and he abuses the crap out of it!!!! grrrrr wish i still had my redtop calibra!!

sorry for the rant what i meant to say was is there any way of adjusting the clutch heaviness?

Have you any idea what type of clutch is in the car or where it was fitted ? any old receipts taht will tell you ?

Ive got 95 na manual the clutch is realy soft and responsive so may be replace the clutch fluid and thats all i can recomend

stock cluch is very light, I bet somebody has stuck in some silly ebay puck clutch.

oh is it fluid? i just assumed it was cable, fill it up thru the brake fluid res? it needs new pads anyway ill do the pads then the brake fluid - ill probably find it gets nice and soft after that.....mines a 92 model tho? aw i dunno!!

i have an rps clutch in mine and even that is nice and light...

The clutch master cylinder is against the bulkhead on drivers side , smaller than the Brake master cylinder.

You said the clutch now your on about the brakes !!!

thats a point actually, when its been icy the clutch makes a weird noise when engaging and.... actually come to think about it it stinks all the time of slipping clutch.... it doesn't slip though - ill get the clutch replaced too!

sorry i was assuming the slave cylinder ran of the brakes like with 90% of GM cars with hydrolic clutches - used to find if all 4 pads were down to the metal the resivoir would drop quite considerably wich in turn would cause the clutch to slip everso slightly or smell bad when driving

Put the car in 4th gear with the hand brake on and see if the engine stalls when you try to move of with the hand brake on

yea it stalls

Should have brought mine

good job iv got a delorian with a flux capacitor ill go back and buy yours mate!!
