Hi guys, I'm pretty sure I need to do a new clutch and bearings in my 5speed 85 300zx NA, but I wanted second opinions as to exactly what to rebuild/replace. For awhile now, the car either won't let you shift into reverse with the clutch pushed in, will shift into reverse while chipping the gear, or just shifts into reverse perfect if you go extra slow and gentle. 3rd gear can be hard to shift into, either it acts like it's "not in gear all the way" and the shift lever vibrates bad, or if you're lucky and slow you can find third gear perfectly and it won't shake. Slight gear chirp when shifting into 2nd. Car can have a hard time getting going in 1st, and will usually growl. Can also be heard growling while quickly accelerating in 5th gear. Bad bearing? Also failing clutch? Going on 184,000 and no idea when it had a fresh clutch thrown in last, lol
I have a factory FSM coming in the mail. I know stuff is failing, just this is my first time rebuilding and I was looking for pointers as to what I need to rebuild replace, thanks for any input guys
