Hello. Im having troubles with fitting my new hks clutch to my r33 gtr. The clutch what as been removed ia OS one which is a pull but the new is push. I have also got the pull to reversal kit. The garage which are fitting it says they seem to have a problems with it. So i was wondering if the r33 box and clutch could of been changed for the r32 one. Is that possible? Or anyone had the same problems?
Thanks

What are the problems the garage are having with the new clutch?

They dont seem able to change back to a push. They have the kit recomended by rb motorsport. Also the hks supplier say its def the right push clutch. It might be they need instructns. Just trying to se what are the best options at the mo. Any idea where to obtain pictures of fitting?

have this clutch on mine,the slave cylinder needs to be moved to the engine side of bell housing and it pushes rearwards instead of the standard mounting position which pushes forwards bearing in mind the arm pivots inside the housing so giving the push required for the hks clutch.to mount the slave cylinder the opposite way i think you have to drill and tap two lugs which are on the opposite side of the clutch arm hole in the housing.mine was already done when i got the car,but i have had the clutch out for refresh of the plates.
