So here the story goes I get a call from my sister saying she was going up a ramp and she heard a bang. She said there was smoke and the car no longer goes into gear but starts. She never told me where the smoke was coming from. It is a 5 speed gsr tranny. I am at school right now so I can't really get anymore details or see the car. What do you guys think is the issue?

 

Maybe she snapped the clutch wire

 

^lol no. If clutch "cable" snaps its just gonna be in gear at all times.
Unfortunately you probably do not know the smell that was there, if there was. Most likely clutch is burned and one of the springs may have broken off and that's what caused the bang. Was it a stock clutch or aftermarket?

 

It was a stage 2 clutch. Its on a 95 GSR tranny to clearify things more. I'm still at school so I still haven't even seen it in person.

 

I'll have a LS tranny for sale soon.

 

^lol nice.
i doubt its the transmission

 

Well it is nice to know if it comes down to it I know where to get a new tranny.

 

How badly did you beat it Spike? :P

Send me a price for an Auto to Manual conversion, including your labour and obviously all the other parts. (Obviously including the price you are charging for your tranny)

A rough estimate

 

it was prolli the clutch like scrid3r said..prolli one of the springs from the driven plates popped..i remember something similar happening..try holding the clutch down and giving it some gas and shift it to a gear to see if it goes into gear..if it does then it's the clutch i can assure you

 

So here is the update I took it to the mechanic and the clutch was broken he said he has never seen one broken so badly before lol. So I'm now looking for a stage 2 clutch anyone know where I should start looking?

 

OptionJdm. me and few others got ours from there, good guys to deal with and price was good.

 

I just saw your picture of the clutch lol. How much was it?

 

250$

 

Alright so I'm going to get a stage 2 clutch tomorrow and drop it off at the mechanic. Thanks guys.

 

np, hope it all works out for you.

 

Update again lol. So I found a stage two clutch locally. When I went to drop it off at the shop I finally saw the car for myself. The previous owner claimed there was a stage 2 clutch already installed but it clearly wasn't. There was a plate broken in 3 pieces it cracked my tranny. I have pics but don't know how to upload them. When I find out I will do it. I should figure out by tonight how to do so.

Old and new

 

That's exedy stage 2-cerametalic clutch correct? Always wondered about those make sure you let us know how it feels driving it.
Also why do you need stage 2? What mods do you have or what do you have planned?

 

Yes you are correct I will be at the meet on wednesday coming up I rather show you what has been done to the car there rather than post it online.

 

i will not be coming out next wednesday since i have work from 7pm.
maybe week after?

 

btw pressure plate is looking mint haha
my buddy managed to crack it in 4 places. one crack was seperated by atleast 4mm.

 

How do those things break anyways I wasn't driving the car so I have no idea how it felt.
