so worked on the car for a little bit. It seems I got the clutch bled but there seems to be a leak where the banjo fitting is. The slave might need replacing. But there is good feel in the clutch. I wired her up and proceeded to satrt her and she didnt even click the starter didnt engage so i was like oh shit. So i proceeded to check the wiring and it seems like I got too big of connectors that the metal clip is not even penetrating the wire. So going to try it out once again with new connectors and see if she lives. I want to start this car so bad already!!!

And yes, I wired them properly yellow/black and red/black on the black harness.

Did you use two copper washers with the banjo bolt?

[4g63lover]

the car still thinks its in gear. I cant seem to get a good conection with the splice connectors. Would it be ok to cut and connect the two wires or is that a complete no no?

I just used whatever came with it.

Not sure on the wiring. If the clutch isnt engaging, you need to do some more bleeding.

I'm going to bleed it some more when I either seal the banjo fitting properly or buy a new slave. and the clutch is disengaging. It's heavy as shit.

Oh wow I basicly read your whole thread bro it very inspirational to actually see a fello G owner do a 5 speed swap. Most have done it.....yup but few have a whole thread to show it :P lol


Major Props to you bro.

[4g63lover]

thanks man. Now, I just want to get it started. I HATE WIRING!

[4g63lover]

Also, is there a lock nut I'm missing on the master cylinder rod? I got it unhooked from the pedal the other night and started turning it but it didnt seem like it was actually turning or moving away from the piston dish.

using these?

and its all good some spacers will make the wheels look hot the closer you get to flush :)

Yeah, using those connectors ain't working well for me. So I'm going to cut and crimp them instead.
