Well first of all, I'm not just saying it. I've installed dozens of multi-disk clutches in dozens of supras (many more single disk clutches too, of course).

Secondly, there's no such thing as a clutch with more than one pressure plate - at least not for the 2jz-gte and V160.

The floater plates do just that - they float ... in between the multiple clutch disks, of course.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
