Has anyone on here used a ts2b clutch before?!? To suit push type 32 GTR-33 GTST?!?!

I have 3 carriers to go with the clutch. A 20mm, 12mm(haven't measured this one) and an 8mm!

We've put the clutch on and used the 20mm carrier but its compressing the diaphragm springs as the box is going back on!!

20mm carrier was what was listed to be used with this clutch!

Can anyone tell me what they've used or post up a picture or something. Maybe some accurate measurements!

Heres a picture of the 20mm and 8mm carriers

Where are you taking the measurement from (20/8mm)?

The one on the left looks like the short one. You need to use that carrier but it looks like you have the wrong bearing on it. The OS Giken uses a small diameter throw out bearing. Not the standard one

hey mate,

sorry yeah the one on the left was the 8mm carrier and the right the 20mm carrier. and i have one that has come out of the car thats about 12mm, i didnt get the chance to measure it and it still at the car at the place we were working on it. ill get correct measurements when i get back to the car!!

taking the measurements from the release fork pad to the back of the bearing.

the one on the right, the 20mm carrier, is what i was told i needed to use with this clutch. the bearing on the 8mm carrier isnt what im using, i tool the clutch to a clutch place and got the correct bearing to suit the clutch.

i just edited an image for this purpose but. i measure my carrier like "A#" in the diagram, unless its a total sleeve length or measurement "B#" is where i need to get the 20mm from?!

thanks mate! cheers for the help!

that's the one i originally got with the clutch but i made some calls to the australian "os giken" distributors JUST to be sure, who told me to get a 20mm carrier!

i have the bearing(isnt in the picture) i took the clutch to the clutch shop to get looked over and made sure it was still in good order and to get the correct bearing for it.

    • Excuse me, but 2) does apply 1) Would also apply if you consider how much is spent in the alternatives. Also there's the option of 3), buy one pre-built that you can put your family in (it's me, it's my car)   That said, I went on a ~500km drive the other day. I didn't use anything more adventurous than 3rd/4th gear at about ~3000RPM and 50% throttle and I was going as fast as anyone has any sense doing on a public road, with enough grip to the point where I didn't want to go any faster. I was obviously under the limit of the current car etc etc. MX5 with 2.5 N/A to achieve the same speed would be more fun for any road scenario. Maybe consider cams. I wouldn't boost it. The use case is just not there and it won't actually make the car more enjoyable unless you really do plan on wringing gears from 1st to 3rd (at least) at 100% WOT on a public road to 150+kmh.
    • Great if: 1. You had all of the money for everything else that is required  2. Lived in a country where you could actually do this and drive it legally on the road Sadly, neither applies to me As for the turbo, I am having second thoughts, mainly for engineering/registration legality reasons and insurance  Not saying I've finished doing stupid things that I probably should do to the MX5, but boost, and V8 engine swaps isn't on the cards Strange, but true

    • Yes shipping here can be a pain, was about to purchase timing belt replacement kit, but it tends to get expensive due to shipping (and customs if importing from non-EU which the UK now falls under).
