2019 nismo wont go into gear
 
hey guys
just got back from butttonwillow, came to take it off of the trailer and saw it wasnt getting into gear. it will go into gear when the car is off, but not when the motor is on. i didnt try putting it in gear and then turning the car on, cause whats the point i figured ill just take it straight to the shop. clutch reservoir is full and clutch pedal is not sticking to the floor. super weird car ran super smooth all day except for i looped it on phil hill and the car kept cutting power at 4k so i restarted the battery and I was good to. I think i fuel starved it, but the transmission was shifting and running super smooth since then. Oh and stock clutch stock everything on the trans only have a coolerworx short shifter and rjm pedal

did i blow through the csc?

let me know gentlemen

thank you

Seems like the clutch isn't disengaging. Transmission is spinning when the engine is on so you can't shift till the engine is off. Why that's happening could be a lot of things.

Sounds like you overheated the stock clutch and it stuck itself to the flywheel and pressure plate. You will know when it is taken apart and if you see any hot spots.

CMC is my guess, too

could be, dropping the trans right now and ordering the new parts tomorrow

should i get a new pressure plate as well?

Also, should i be getting anything else to beef up while the trans is out?

The CMC would have been a good place to start because you only have to remove the clutch pedal to replace it. If you already have the transmission out, then its too late for that. When replacing the clutch/CSC always make sure to replace the CMC also.

Pilot bearing failure will have your exact symptoms.

ordered a complete quick shift kit from zspeed, oem cmc, arp pressure plate bolts, zspeed flywheel bolts. do i need anything else? any help would be appreciated

justin_boy 05-27-2021 02:10 PM

quick shift kit felt great. all parts had some heat spots but nothing terrible. if you pumped the clutch enough it would go into gear. so im guessing either csc failed or cmc

Did you use Motul RBF 600 or Castrol SRF dot 4?

I use my Castro racing srf. There is improved feel over the others.

That would be why. Use one of the two I listed above.
