Hks GD clutch

[Palmeruk]

Hi has anyone had any experience with hks gd twin plate clutches? If so can you please get in touch, prize waiting lol

[Laeeq]

What do you need to know?  Have this on my car and was fun to install

[Palmeruk]

Hiiii, what part did you use to clip release bearing to pressure plate? Im losing my mind trying to figure it out

[Laeeq]

There should be a 3part spring ring / washer that holds the release bearing which sits through the pressure plate.  I did take a picture of mine when the engine was out couple of years ago so will dig out tomorrow.

Is this it?



Im trying to work out how to clip it in through the inspection window and in what order they go

[Palmeruk]

Ok so gearbox came out today and this is what i have, with the current parts when i put my foot on the clutch with engine running and the pedal bounces back with a crunching/cluncking, the top three rings hold in the collar which the bearing fits into and the ring on the bottom right holds the bearing into the collar, with this i have alot of play which leads me to believe im using the wrong clip, any ideas?

[Laeeq]

Mine did not come with that small oem release bearing retaining clip.  instead it came with a 3 part spring washer which holds all these round springs + the release bearing in place and there was no play at all.

I have found these 2 pics which may help.

In the second picture the release bearing is attached to clutch cover by using that 3 part spring.  then you will have to put these lose washers back in and hold these in place by the last spring sitting lose.  

i hope you get it sorted.:Thumbs-up

So did you have to build the clutch through the viewing window if the bearing is already attached? Ok wicked looks like i need the 3 clip set :-)

[Palmeruk]

Losing the will to live trying to find that clip set......

[Laeeq]

you should be able to buy these clips, springs etc from rhdjapan.com

I did put the clutch on the engine before dropping the engine in then just used a long screw driver and pushed the release bearing in place through gearbox viewing hole.

I found a site to buy it but you have to buy the full sleeve assembly lol, cheers for the help hopefully it all goes to plan, i found out i needed a different push rod too :-/
