No. The NA box is a skinny little twig. The turbo box is huge. But you can put RB clutches on RBs of any stripe. By the way. That (eBay clutch) is the cheapest, nastiest looking thing I have ever seen. Spend a thousand $$.

JC71 Posted May 27, 2020 Author Share Posted May 27, 2020 (edited) ok so the actual transmission (gear box, what ever you call it) is different from a RB25de 25gt NA model and a GTT RB25det turbo model, but any clutch will fit? so I can get a clutch kit that is listed for a GTT R34 and it will fit my trans?

JC71 Posted May 27, 2020 Author Share Posted May 27, 2020 (edited) or is this something to be considered with and best to swap entire trans at same time with a GTT trans?

Unzipped Composites Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 The R34 GT (non turbo) gearbox is essentially an RB20 gearbox, very weak and uses a push type clutch. The R34 GTT gearbox is exactly the same as an RB25DET gearbox, but uses a pull type clutch. If you are planning on changing to an R34 GTT gearbox/driveline at any point, then don't upgrade the clutch for your current gearbox - it won't be a direct swap without converting the GTT gearbox to a push type clutch.

JC71 Posted June 4, 2020 Author Share Posted June 4, 2020 (edited) can any one define what parts and what makes it actually "stronger" or is it just simply less prone to break when abused?

JC71 Posted June 9, 2020 Author Share Posted June 9, 2020 no matter which trans and therefore push or pull style I end up going with, what is anyone's experience with the brand SPEC for clutches? or one they can recommend for essential a "stage 1 clutch", looking for stock or a little better, do want to keep the pedal feel as soft and easy /close to stock feel.

JC71 Posted June 9, 2020 Author Share Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) I'm sure that has solid engagement, but how's the pedal feel? do you have a lightened flywheel as well?
