Hey thanks for having me on the forum ! Ok car has been sitting and clutch seems to be frozen or inoperable . I have pedal but car will not dissengage when running in gear . The slave has throw but still no release . I would like to race this car at the grassroots challenge www.fastpitstops.com ,<,,,,,,,,>>>> Is it the clutch /throwout/pressure plate and what is approximate cost of parts ?? Or is the tranny shot
? Any Help would be apprciated challenge is in 20 days or so



Thanks again and hello to evryone on the board !!

We pulled tranny and see that the clutch is shot and the slave is leaking , got a clutch pak from advanced auto $91 dollars and a slave for 16 dollars . will post some piks of car when we get it buttoned up . www.fastpitstops.com

Let us know how the Advance Auto clutch pack works for ya. I would be too leary of the quality to purcahse that from them for my car.

It looked pretty nice , it is just for a one event deal then maybe some auto x ing so I am hoping for some performanance hahaaha that might be an oxymoron from discount it was a www.perfectionclutch.com part on the box I am uploading some piks now to flikr will post in a bit some piks.

also we need to change the master so it will be a full redo advanced auto style

Here is a couple of shots of the work sorry noy as detailed as should be http://www.flickr.com/photos/41220856@N07/

One thing that I noticed: Your oil cap is silver. is this an aftermarket cap or painted? I really like that! lol

Never noticed about cap it was that way when we got it from police impound !! thanks for looking , ok but heres the deal ,,,, we replaced everything , clutch/prrssre plate throwout/slave /master and we still have problems . i have my buddy with a tranny at the salvage yard so we will probably be changing it out as soon as we go and pullit . I have my tranny guy that can rebuild it i just have not asked him yet . Has anyone rebuilt the synchros in the tranny is it cost efficient or just bang a used unit in ? >>>>>>>>symptoms now>>> good pedal but no action only gear we can take of in is 3 rd if that now its grinding grinding grinding

I have never replaced the synchros in these trannys, however, I can't imagine it being any more expensive than most any other make/model synchros.

we still are not getting pedal , we think the new slave is bad so we are gonna try another this afternoon . I noticed on the cap it said assembled in mexico .

we are not getting as much pedal as we would like , we put a nut in front of the throw piston rod of the slave still no pedal ? Wondering if we put clutch disq in backwards ? We blew thru the clutch hose and it seemed fine no leaks and not collapsed . We are getting travel on slave but still no clutch ?

I would recheck the clutch installation.

And in the process, make sure the clutch fork lever is functioning properly -- the pivot bearing could be bad.

OK the clutch is different !! instead of a 200 mil its a 215 , i am guessing the all wheel drive clutch . The pressure plate is thicker and taller . The old pressure plate and set up was made in great britain . It looks like we have solved it waiting for new clutch to come in . I am taking pictures so will post when we get this straightened out thank you karl

Glad to here you potential found your problem. Sry we weren't of much help, but I hope everything runs good when your done!

Crap clutch pressure plate is not correct had to call dealer for clutch pak $250 easy any help on better pricing aftermarket clutch ? The dealer checked it buy the vin number to get correct clutch

we have decided to reuse pressure plate and just get new throwout bearing and clutch disc <<<<<<

Check out JNZTuning.com. They have oem parts for up to 25% off dealer price.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/gunsmilie.gif) ok reinstalled with new clutch disk and throwout bearing , used old pressure plate . No freakin go ! crap crap crap .. It does not work . We left the clutch all the way in overnight to see if it would bleed over night nothing . Ok we ordered a OEM clutch from LUKE and its number is a 050-22 so we will receive it tommorow and remove and install it again and see what going on . i have pictures of what we just did but what a waste we are back to square one . The throw on slave is awesome but no clutch . (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laughing.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laughing.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laughing.gif) << crazy laughing

We went down to my buddys yard and got another mitsubishee and we are pulling the tranny out of it and we are going to replace the whole trans and the hose . so we should have some progress with this action

Ok clutch works finally , >>>> WE think this is the biggest part of the problem >>>> we went up under the dash and tightened down the clutch brake bar assembly <<<<<<< we feel we where losing some clutch pedal under the dash on the assembly we tightened a nut at the end of the assembly and we finally got pedal . We where bent up crooked under the dash and finally we figured it out . Hello Grassroots motorsports challenge .

Haha! nice!
