I put an exedy oem clutch in mine and I like it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/400136532780. To get it done right make sure you have the flywheel resurfaced and replace the rear main seal while you have the trans off even if it looks good. Took me a few hours to do mine but spaced over 2 days since I had to take the flywheel to the machine shop.

I need to get a garage to do it. I'm away at college and don't have the means. Any suggestions? |

If you're going to get Excedy, i've been told to get an OEM toyota throw out bearing because the excedy ones are crap.
And by that point, its only a couple bucks cheaper. Better of to go oem, thats what I did. -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |

There's a guy in Luthersburg named Dan Henry. He's supposed to be really good with imports. I've never had anything fixed by him but have had him mount and balance a few tires and hes given me fair price and had good service.

i tried RDP racing...untill now, i cant complain...been running hard n soft for about 30,000km and its still going strong on hard drives. tried exedy 3 puck (thick) good stuff aswell but the problem is that i did not get the fork n clutch bearing when i bought it. The problem with exedy (apart from the 3 puck thick or thin and the kevlar one) we r not able to buy only the clutch but need to buy a complete set each time u need a change (clutch + flywheel). When u could buy only the clutch. Plz correct me if am wrong.

Never use the Throw out bearing from the aftermarket clutch, always use the OEM one, the aftermarket ones have noise earlier than what it should and sooner than the OEM one. it gets irritating.

the TO bearing that comes with Southbend clutches is an OEM bearing.
