Hi all,

 

Who makes the latest and greatest clutch kits for this setup?

 

Mildly worked 308 and Supra 5 speed with Dellow hydraulic kit from the 80's.

 

Just for street use, nothing wild.

 

I recall the kits supplied by Sunbury Brakes were talk of the town a few years back, wondering if they're still the go to.

 

Located in Sydney, if you know a mob that specialise in this.

Cheers.

 

I was thinking the same, they were reputable a few years back. Con from Diff Technics would get his clutches from them.

 

Does anyone know which kit they use?

When I did my last conversion, Dellow actually had a supplier that would mix and match parts required for the conversions.

 

Cheers

What a pain this conversions can be

 

I need to do same for my sedan

I just did one for a customer at work

 

My main go-to clutch company atm is Australian Clutch in Adelaide... but its not something you can just ring up and order

 

So I got one from a local supplier

They use the Holden/Chev 266mm cover

But a Toyota 260mm plate

 

And bearing would depend on the fork config you have

 

Not really an 'off the shelf' kit anymore for most people

Western Clutch don't always use a kit, they put the correct parts for the job, so it can be adjusted to suit vehicle.
