Clutch change 3sge

Post by fred130111 »

I have a rev 2 NA And have just had to get a new clutch, I have looked around and am getting conflicting information, some say remove the subframe some say this isn't needed. Just wondered if any of you gurus out there have any tips etc?

I must admit I did remove my sub-frame at the time, although I was putting on a new exhaust too.

Come to think of it, I can now see how leaving the sub-frame in could be beneficial when putting the box back on.

Cheers guys, yeah I found an exedy one from euro car parts for around 100 quid, I'm guessing it should be pretty good quality has anyone tried one before ?

Exedy is every bit as good as Toyota.

No need to remove subframe.
