R33 Clutch And Flywheel

[Single]

so ive got an RB30 and im bolting an r33 gtst gearbox to it, ive got an extreme flywheel and an exedy single plate clutch, but the rb30 i had was an auto, and the bolt heads are to high!

What do i do? does anyone else stock smaller headed bolts for RB30's?

arp or oem?

give me some advice my build is waiting

which bolt heads are too high? should all be interchangable

[DVS JEZ]

you mean gearbox bolts? if so got to a bolts and bearings etc shop and get the right length.

if you mean flywheel bolts? subaru have the same as nissan flywheel bolts, so a few options where to get them

clutch plate around the wrong way?

[Single]

nah the 6 bolts that attach the flywheel to the crank( the heads on those bolts are to high) they are like 20mm high heads, but i dont even think 10mm heads would fit.

i know that all the flywheels are interchangeable, but will any brand rb25 clutch, fit any brand rb25 flywheel? the clutch centre springs come out like 10m one side and like 30mm the other side (exedy HD single) is that right?

anyone had this problem before?

clutch plate around the wrong way?

Agreed. Did you note which way you pulled the clutch out? Every clutch i've fitted the side with the spring assembly (the bit you said sticks out like 30mm) faces your clutch diaphragm spring/gearbox. If you think bolt heads that are 10mm shorter still won't fit then there's a good chance you have the friction plate around the wrong way.

Ordinarily, the bolts for an auto flywheel are too short to use with a manual flywheel. So, what bolts did you get to fix the new manual flywheel to the crank?

[turboedsloth]

go to an auto parts place or holden/nissan and get some rb30 manual flywheel bolts

Yes make sure you get actual Flywheel bolts not just some random bolts that fit as they may be to weak

I guess RB30/25/20/26 flywheel bolts would all be the same (well manual ones anyway) so I would try holden first then Nissan as suggested above. Otherwise you might be able to get some from a wrecked R33
