g'day,

I have just picked up an RB20DET motor and box that came with a twin plate Clutch and lighted flywheel.

Now I have to find a throw out bearing to suit this clutch. The only marking on the clutch is "TJ"

I know the Throw out in the box is not the correct one for this clutch I just really need more info on the clutch and Bearing.

If anyone had any experience or thought please help :)

Cheers

Oh here is a pic of the clutch also :)

What makes you think it's the wrong throw out?

Mine has an Exedy HD clutch and lightened flywheel and if you're worried about the noise that you get when the clutch is out - it's NORMAL.

If you haven't put it in the car yet then I think the GQ patrol bearing will work...otherwise just go OEM or try a wrecker. Call nissan and quote your VIN and they'll give you the part number for it. If it's not going into the same car it came out of (as in make and model), just call Nissan and they should be able to locate the right part.

I though every clutch kit that comes out has its own throw out bearing best suited for the new clutch.

the one that is in there is very very similar if not the same to one I have seen on an original setup on the same type of box.

I'll probs get an NGK or something along the lines once I sort it out. If it turns out an OEM one will do the trick then thats awesome

Cheers for the input m8 :)

Well I'm almost at the stage of putting it all back together, still un decided if I should use the twin plate TJ only coz I dont even know if its thicker or what by comparison to stock.

when the time comes I guess I'll put it in anyway but any advise on the clutch would be great :)

Cheers

    • Spotted in Adelaide last week.... mine! New to me two weeks ago.. love it!
    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
