Just get on and do it... If you have the space and some tools just have a go.. All I did.. I'm no mechanic as I said.. And it drives a bit better.. Like if I'm skidding it in the dry it's much easier to keep it sideways if I pop the clutch as sliding as the revs pick up quicker and the clutch's clamping force is allot better due to the updated cover and the 4puk disc dissipates heat better therefore will be up for some more abuse.. So I'll see how it goes on my next drift day :)

@ the transporter hahaha funny stuff!! I know I would had liked it but had a full English to start the day that was just a bite between :)

I don't even know what a mandrel is to be honest... Guessing it's a alignment tool?? And yeah was happy drive much better :)

yeah you may laugh but my kneck and back hurt! i felt like a old man after... haha

looks good where abouts was it??

Read 3 posts above your question ;)

spotted it

Yeah wish I did use jack to get the box off but then I didn't realise how heavy it was going to be!! :)

Cheers people! and i think it was cucumber tomato onion cheese... Lettuce.. And no butter!! Eww but can't remember haha..

Right ill start off by saying im no mechanic.. it took me for ever... and i dont want to do it again anytime soon hah

i done it on my larry and i really wish i has a hand as the car wasnt all that high and the gearbox was heavier than i thought.. only had it set up on wheels but i worked with what i had :)

and i might not have done things right etc or how you should do ... but hey tell me whats what and ill be happy to listen! :)

anyway on to some pictures (no fancy shots was kind of grubby and wanted to try to finish it!)

got the car up to a height i first thought was plenty high enough

whipped what under tray i had left under there off

then took my decat pipe off

bit of scrapage

split my prop

then i slid the prop out the gearbox (woops)

prop on the floor

took the shifter and that off

then hunted for the bell housing bolts (only seemed to take this picture but had three long extension bars and two small ones to get to the top ones and one for the starter motor

bolts all out and just resting while i figured out how to get it to the floor without breaking it

dropped it onto a wheel i had laying about

had to slide the prop back in as gearbox oil started to come out the rear of the box where i took the prop out

old clutch intact ready to be taken off

old clutch plate (suprised at condition of it as the abuse its had)

old dual mass flywheel

flywheel off

got hungry!

cleaned up the jun lightened flywheel (much lighter!!)

torqued up the flywheel with new bolts and threadlock

flywheel fitted

new clutch kit to go in

clutch on and alligned to what i though was right...

box ready to be lined up

then realised i couldnt lift the box and hold it up long enough to allign it :( so i improvised..

eventually got it on... what a pain!!

then done all the bell housing bolts back up.. no photos

exhaust back on

and it all back together!

comments/criticism welcome!!

looks good where abouts was it??

What kit did you get Jay_russel?? Link?

fitted a bucket seat in my car today was a bit of a pain but worth it

clutch getting done next weekend!

going to be a busy bee when i get a free weekend... should be next weekend hopefully and then ill get round to fitting this!!

hopefully should be getting some in the process photos if i remember to take any! but will be another week till this is done ;(

makes me want to jump out there now and bust on with it!

cheers man.. seem to have to answer all my questions haha good man!

im guessing the answer is yes but just wanted to make sure?? not to worried if the wiring isnt compatible as i can sort that just physically fit?

i only ask as i think i read somewhere before that is300 head lights dont fit propperly? might be wrong

cheers!

nice one man will do just that!

nooo dont think so... unless i can find a manual box for it!

i done a brand new set of fronts in about 1 1/2 months.... but all my own fault.. neg camber,toe out...

so no way of not having to tap the throttle?? anyone? :o

Hi all basically when it's cold or first time for the day starting my car it won't start unless I bilp the throttle once as I'm turning it over it fires up no trouble.. Quite strange.. But anyone had the same thing if so what's up :o I'm thinking something to do with a auto choke? Or am I far off the mark?

'There many many options for upgraded clutches since altezza (3SGE, SXE10) clutches are exactly the same with 1GFE and will fit 100% in the IS200.'

cause im getting pretty annoyed not knowing for definite whether certain clutches will etc... thought i found one but now im not sure..

heard various things but would just like to confirm

man up and expect it to happen if you dunk your car ;) haha

Yeah on to one guy at the mojo... Just there costly and need to get a clutch kit next.. So the seat will have to sit in my front room Some more... :(

yeah thats it the eBay dude... and id rather just buy one and have it all done with but seem like hens teeth... are they handed then? like left and right?
