If it is really high up then it is going to need replaceing noww or in the future so may as well get it over and done with.
If it slips really bad then it will screw up the flywhell so try not to let it get to bad.

Your not having much luck at the mo with your car are ya Nik.

I might have a trailor at snet so may be able to get you home if it breaks.

Other than that I'm sure we've got some spare time at work soon so we could change it over in that time

No probs mate,

I've got all the tools etc so we should be able to get it done.

Plus I got a new tool for xmas that'll help.

Hopefully that new tool is a spare set of arms and fingers and a 5 ton transmission jack with a million point adjustable head! :lol:
Its not the most fun of jobs doing a GTR clutch.

I don't know much about skyline clutches but I thought my stock clutch was on the way out when it was very hard to engage any gear as with the pedal depressed it would not disengage (well it took alot of pumping). Managed to limp the car home took it to a garage, turns out my slave cylinder had 1) an airlock in it and 2) a small leak.
