    Its called the clutch fork pivot bolt. Its common enough for them to break on the skyline/s body nissans

    It it is broken after you've refitted the gearbox then the box will likely have to come back off as it will be near impossible to refit the clutch fork into the release bearing properly.

    That might be wishfull thinking, especially if them box has to come off again.

    If they know these cars well they should have checked the pivot before refitting the box IMO. You will normally see the wear/damage on them.

    no they don't know so well although they did some Supra project successfully last year.. they're actually hybrid cars specialists :D

    but otherwise they're top guys with always clean garage and working manners, will to help, not so expensive etc.

    Since i love to drive skyline every day, fitting electric engine wouldn't be bad option with present petrol prices.. hmm..
