Datsun Dreaming
Ok so yesterday myself and mattback did the clutch in my car. A few surprises and 16hrs later the clutch went in. The kid I bought my car from did all the work on it before I bought it(rhd,swap) and it was his first one. So I guess he welded the new firewall to the old one or something because my car looks like it has 8million firewalls. Which if any of you have ever done a clutch with the motor in the car would know that the bell housing is a tight fit and those top bolts to bolt the tranny on are just not fun. So after trying to do the clutch with the motor in the car we just said fuck it and pulled the motor. After that everything was easy. Here are the pics with details. Oh and I will be doing my diff/new axles next week. If anyone has stock oem open diff 6 bolt output shafts I need them. Not very rare so i want thems.
Here is the old clutch, I don't honestly know how the fuck my car was driving.

Team purple clutch crew checking in.

This might be epic, the only two exedy hyper singles I have ever seen together at once. haha

This is my pretty clutch when it went on the block, yeah you can see the fucked firewall in this one good.



This is what happens when Matt and I get pissed off and just say fuck it pull the motor.

Put a downpipe on just because matt had it laying around. Yeah thats the stock one next to it. If anyone wants it let me know, I hate it. lol

Edit...thanks to mattback my car runs. I had to add this I don't feel I gave him enough cred.

Or, paint it JDM red and/or purple and sell it on eBay for a king's ransom. Take the money and party like it's 1999.
