MK III turbo clutch setup question.

DarkSupra2.5 · 02-10-2010, 03:20 AM

Hey, just curious because I know I don't keep up with any changes made. But on the turbo supra's, it's a pull type clutch setup, using a release bearing hub and bearing itself with the R154 trans. Is there a way to modify the set up so it uses a push type clutch, like on the w58 trans, so we can delete the release hub? Only reason I ask is I just sheared mine in half in the middle of a race, and I don't like the idea of it happening again. If not, it's no biggy, as i have another one on order, but i'd like to have options in the future. Thanks for the help guys!

Thanks for the help guys! __________________ 1jz-gte swap (Currently spun #3 rod bearings), Apexi high flow filter, Greddy thrust 3" downpipe, N1 3" catback with cat delete tube, 1 peice driveshaft, Bar and Plate intercooler, and 440 JDM 2jz injectors. Possible 2jz lower block swap in the works if I can't rebuild the 1j. So troublesome.
