Personally, if I lived somewhere in lower QLD near some legally accessible beaches/driveable islands and had an emotional attachment to my current GU tight/best drivetrain would consider an LS1...

There was a bloke in Melbourne doing recos. 0400 033 377 I don't know if he's still doing it. Freight to QL might be too high, but Readies of Bendigo sometimes have good ZD's that are taken out for...

I'd be thinking it's something wrong with the clutch itself.
Maybe worn a groove on the gearbox shaft or that sort of thing.
The force from the clutch should be ample to return the pedal

Exedy are a good brand, but even good quality can fail.

To me your symptoms point to pressure plate failure. Or, the thrust bearing carrier, the part that slides on the nose cone of the gearbox,...

TB and TD42's come with a clutch booster obviously, but RB30 doesn't have a vacuum assisted clutch booster. Not sure about the RD28.

Was this happening before or after the clutch replacement?
If it was there before , have a look at the clutch fork as it may be cracked or worn on the pivot. All so check the pivot adjustment.

GQ or GU? Sounds like a vacuum issue. The GQs have a rebuildable clutch booster, a rebuild kit is available for them, the GU's don't.

Yeah, but I'm not sure vacuum leaks in the booster or the vacuum lines can produce those symptoms.
I would think the pedal would be tad harder without vacuum assist.
Ideally a malfunctioning vacuum...

That's what I was thinking.
Usually there is a spring. I wonder if somehow that's popped out of place?!

Isn't there a spring in the pedal assembly to bring the pedal back up?

G`Day mate.
Pushing the fork back to the slave is ok as the slave is non adjustable.
Does the pedal return with the engine turned off and the boaster bled of vacuum.

As suggested by Yendor check the park/neutral switch and the gearbox harness.
That will cost you nothing,
you'll still need to replace the IC as soon as you can though

Theres a wiring harness that runs beside the gearbox. Just check and make sure there is no damage to it.
I'd be looking at the intercooler i reckon.

Try disconnecting the park neutral switch on the drivers side of the geabox and see if that makes any difference.

Also make sure that the gearbox harness wasn't damaged during the clutch change.

One you need to get a tig welded IC asap and then see how you go
this needs to be changed no matter what so it will be one less thing to worry about.
Also check the blue hose in the pic they have a...

Hmm so its a load related issue then maybe. You know anyone with the same motor you can borrow their maf from? Does it do it when cold, hot etc etc. Last time the fuel filter was changed?
Check...

Dont think the turbo is buggered just think its not working
Give Mudski a PM he's your go to man for all things NADS related

still sounds like your turbo is not working, Id recheck all the vacuum hoses.
Your EGTs must be getting up there too, thats why we stress to NADS
your Patrol so you can see whats happening,, I...

I got quoted over the phone 18k, drive in drive out with a 4.2T they have at the time with 1 year warranty on labour and all parts involved including the motor. You're looking around 24k with a fully...

I would fix the ZD30, great motor when sorted.
What area are you in if Vic there are quite a few places that do this on a dily basis.
then you have a 4x4 that drinks more, amongst other things....

From my own findings you will need to replace...

radiator and hoses including heater hoses.
radiator surge tank
engine fan and fan clutch
Alternator and mounts
power steering and mounts

I think you need a bell-housing adapter to adapt to your current gearbox, providing it is a manual. If it is an auto, I'm not sure if it's possible?
I think one of the engine mounts needs to be...

IMHO the reason for going to a 4.2 would be because you want to, not because of a failed injector pump in the 3.0.
Yes it would be a fair bit of work. If the 3.0 is OK in other respects, now that it...

They are a pretty good motor if looked after and the right provisions are out in place so you don't end up blowing it up

I had mine lose power and would have to press accelerator twice to get it...
