New Zealand Datsun Club

So a few months ago my clutch starting playing up so first thing I did was check and replace the slave cylinder for about a week all was good then it started to get hard to get into gear so I did new fluids and eventually replaced the master cyl which fixed that but now the clutch is slipping it seems to be pre loaded as the slave wont fully compress is it time for a new clutch plate? Please help
Thanks

You should have some free play at the fork with the clutch engaged (pedal up). Is it the factory clutch/gearbox setup for the car?

Into a 140j a 5 speed dog leg 63a#2 replaced the factory 4 speed but never had problems until recently

Sounds like it's either just a worn out clutch or possibly the height of the release bearing carrier, I'm not too clued up on L4 clutches though.

it could be the clutch has worn down to far and the pin on the slave wont push the fork in enuf to engauge the pressier plate, had the same problem with my mates ca18det

Im just going to run with a new clutch anyone know where to get flywheel machined for cheap or anyonw have the equipment to do for cash?

Clutch systems on Hazeldean Rd are pretty good and well priced.

Definitely sounds like a mismatch between the pressure plate and the thrust bearing collar. The 4 speed and 5 speed have different length collars too. I had a table showing which height pressure plate went with which collar, but can't find it now. This might help though

Oh really!? So 5speeds no go it was fine for over 6 months

Or can I just get thruat bearing to suit 5 speed?
