Cheers,
I got the flywheel back from the machine shop and it looked pretty good, so I fitted up a standard 200mm toyota clutch kit (4AGE sprinter), It felt pretty good under the foot and was smooooooth on the road(nice) But as before when it boosted up in 4/5th it started to slip.
I spoke to a number of clutch specialists and decided to upgrade the clutch plate to a 4 puck item i was told this add 30-40 percent less slip.
I pulled the motor and box (getting pretty used to it now), I found that the machine shop had only machined a standard 0.2mm step onto the flywheel as opposed to the 0.5mm I had asked for (They re-machined at no cost).
I fitted it all back up again with the new 4 puck clutch plate, and you guessed it,...... it still slips.
I`m starting to get a bit pissed off about the whole thing, but I won`t let it beat me, I`m now thinking that I will have to get a new h-duty pressure plate but am not sure , I have been quoted $190.00 for a custom, 100 percent clamping force item. I might have to trawl some 4AGE/sprinter forums and see what they have to say. [img width=300]http://datsun1200.com/modules/myalbum/photo.php?lid=21562[/img]
