Clutch wrong size

Recommended Posts

So which one did you buy?

 

ECP part number 641701280 for Exedy is correct for a VQ35DE (but will not fit the HR)

This an Exedy NSK 2168 kit

The part number on the cover should be NSC 633

The part number on the plate should be NCD 140U

Yeah, I know all that.

 

The HR indeed runs a 240mm clutch.

 

I need the part numbers off the new clutch as detailed above to enable me to provide you with informed information.

 

I have come across this issue on numerous occasions.

 

Does the new plate marry up with the new cover?

 

Does the new cover marry up to the flywheel?

 

What year and model is your car?

 

Also, have you been messing around with engine and gearbox swops as I recall that you were fitting an auto engine into a manual?

What he has said ^^^^

 

However, you will probably ignore this nugget as well.

 

This is what you should have bought:

Sorry if you think this is the case. I certainly am not ignoring it. I'm very grateful for all the advice given and am looking into everything although  my replies are up in the air so to speak. Why such a comment? Am I wasting your time?

Thank you. My apologies for asking advice... and seeming thick. Will probably go for a solid flywheel to go with kit bought. Originally wanted to put in like for like.

If the car is a DE/RevUp,why would it have a 240mm clutch in it - is that not HR only? 

I have seen some DE motors with the 240, however, it can be an easy and inexpensive fix, but the OP, unfortunately, is not listening or providing the information requested  I am afraid.

I'm sorry you think this ZMANALEX. I am listening and have taken on board all advice. Information about clutch supplied is the only thing I haven't got  as it was delivered straight to the garage that is doing the work. I/we know how  to get round it but again as stipulated previously was originally wanting to change like for like with the original 240mm nissan clutch but this is not an option. Looks like there is no clear reason as to why it came like this  because there is no clear answer.

There is a very clear answer, however, I require the information previously requested to provide informed advice.

 

I think that you and your garage are way out there depth, unfortunately.

 

I am done on this one I am afraid.

 

Good luck.

The information is there thats from the 240mm original clutch. It's okay as there is no one that knows everything. I can assure you the garage I have my car in knows his stuff and can do his job competently. Thanks for the advice you could give.

@ZMANALEX is basically the forum expert.  He asked several questions above, but didn't get a reply.  He also mentioned that he has seen this several times before, so if you ask really nicely he may come to the rescue and tell you exactly what you need.

 

While I don't doubt your garage is competent, I do doubt that they are Zed specialists.

I've quoted his comment below:
