I can't say for sure this is your situation, but there have been many reports of techs neglecting to grease that T.O. bearing spline. In some cases, they have even CLEANED it off - a VERY bad thing.
There have even been reports of brand new cars where that spline was not greased properly, causing the T.O. bearing to get sticky and partially seize.

 

I remeber greasing to TB, so what do you think might be the problem with mine?

 

The only thing I don't recognize is that Spec PP. This may or may not have anything to do with your situation. You did something with the flywheel, right?

The clutch pedal adjustment is only if you feel the "friction point" is not in the correct place and there is incorrect free play at both ends.

 

I bought the flywheel new, but i did not have it cut (scratched, machined). I didn't think it needed to be when it is new. Maybe that's the problem, because i know there is a friction loss somewhere (i think).

 

Since when is there a clutch adjustment on a hydraulic clutch?

My guess is this:
Your TO bearing is the old one
your flywheel isn't turned or if it is then you might have "hardspots" or cracks on the flywheel
your transmission might be shiet

 

The flywheel was brand new from Toda, so i hope that's not it, but i didn't turn it before i put it on(so maybe that's the reason). I put on a brand new T bearing (greased as well) when i installed it, and i know it's not the transmission. it only started after i changed the clutch and flywheel, and i can feel the clutch trying to engage, but slipping roughly when i go to engage. It's only in first, and when accelerating WOT in 1st.

Thanks for the advice.

 

u don't need to turn a brand new flywheel. did you happen to wipe off the grease and oil with some carburetor cleaner before installation though?

 

We were referring to the clutch "pedal", not the clutch per se. There is a minute pedal adjustment possible but this is highly NOT recommended until all other possibilities have been exhausted.




The only other thing that I can suggest is that you get someone mechanically knowledgeable with the S2000 who is handy to your location and have him test drive it. At this point, I think you need a diagnosis from someone who can get "hands on" with your car. Your description of the symptoms can easily be misinterpretted.

 

Ah ok thanks for the clarification xviper.

I could be wrong but your clutch might be out of alignment. If the mechanic didn't use a clutch alignment tool then you're focked.

 

The clutch alignment tool is only to hold the clutch disc in position to allow the tranny to mate up with the back of the engine. Some mechanics are so good at "eye balling" this that they don't even need this tool. If the disc is not held in the right position, the tranny won't even mate up. Since his tranny is mated up, this was not an issue.

Having said this, there could still be some other mounting error committed.
