JDM MkIII Crazy Clutch Shriek

[Mkent]

Hey Guys,

I've got a JDM 1991 MKIII and it's been extensively modded from Japan. It boosts ohsofast and is powered by a 1JZ with a single HKS turbo set up.

The clutch has started to make a very high pitched squeal/grind only when I put the pedal all the way in. I dropped the tranny (for the first time) and noticed it had a wild Ogura Racing clutch but I didn't check to see how many plates. Anyways, after some searching I found a replacement release bearing and i've replaced it. Now, with the tranny back in place, the grinding is happening again, so I'm at a bit of a loss. Clearly, if its a multiplate set up, the clutch plates could be worn/bent and rubbing when released, so the car will need a new clutch.

I want to know if I can use the 7MGTE clutch if I retain the 1JZ flywheel? Anyone have any insight on this?

Thanks!
