Getting close to the actual swap! Few questions
- Thread starter 87M-GTE
- Start date
Yes. On their site is the links to them.
Anything that can be done yo avoid stress on the crank is a good thing.
I plan on doing a 2JZ build and will be using billet mains along with having everything spun balanced along with a main girdle with L19 hardware. Sure, it will cost a pretty penny but handle a load of power. I won't be posting that build here those since it is not "Supra" related enough to go in the gallery and I don't want another infraction, I will let you guys know when I start it in my signature.
Back on topic, if you are spending 500-600 on a clutch, save your money and do a twin disk. You will be happy because it will hold a lot of power and continue to hold when it gets hot and will wear less than the standard six puck, assuming you know how to drive stick and don't ride your clutch everywhere.
I only use my clutch when moving from a stop and any highway racing. Other than that, it is all gearing up and down by rev matching. Learn to do it if you don't know how, your left leg will be happy.

I've done 'rev match' shifting before, I'm just gonna stick to using a clutch.
I think i might end up just puckering up and spending the cash on a multidisk clutch.
You will be happy if you get that clutch. I always rev match, no problem to me, if you drive in NY traffic, you get used to it.
Don't worry about the price, I have the second one on the page. You can find them cheaper. A member in here sold one of them used for $900 and these clutches used are still good unlike buying a standard single disk used.

LOL! If you don't know how to do it, you will grind every gear. If you want to see my shynchkro after six years, I can show you. That was with a six puck and rev matching all the time. My synchros looked like new.
Here are pictures.

Mine still had the ridges on the inside as well. All were in spec and actually in the middle, not on the far end which would indicate a lot of wear.
