nissanman312 Posted January 4, 2020 Author Share Posted January 4, 2020 (edited) Massive thanks to @350Butcher who helped me bleed out my clutch and brakes today I wasnt happy with the way the clutch felt after fitting and martin has the same clutch and knows his way around the tools extremely we all know So we got a bit more feel in the clutch and bled the brakes while we was at it The clutch felt loads better after bleeding but still felt notchy while going for 5/6 So after reading a thred on here about a similar problem i decided to try what it suggested. so I dived into the gear stick area and to check to see if the gate was restricting things and I think it was a tad So I loosened the bolts around the gate and dropped it into 6th and tightened the bottom bolt the put it into 5th and did the same Its spot on now slips into gear lovely Massive thanks to @350Butcher and a big thanks to @coldel because I think it was your thred I found Oh and martain got to have a good old blast in the charged z which he seemed to enjoy Edited January 4, 2020 by nissanman312 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey_83 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 (edited) The local Z legend strikes again You'd think after the same issue noted on the Z33 that the Z34 would have ironed that out, tut tut.

He sure did I think it's possible that it came off during clutch installation But I literally moved it 3/4 mm not much but makes all the difference Car needs a @davey_83 spit and polish soon lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
