Axles and Clutch for E154F with 5SFE Options

[czwalga]

Are the splines the same on the e145f as they are on whatever tranny came with the 5SFE? If so I imagine the same clutch will work with either tranny.



Also, what axles will work with the AWD tranny. I know they are equal length but, i'm not sure if anyones figured out what axles will bolt right up.

nope.
you'll need the same style of hybrid disk all the 3s swappers use.

the AWD axles work perfectly with the AWD tranny. lol

I actually mean, where do they come from? Will only the GT4 axles work, or is there another stateside car that you can source them from.



Edit: I'd need the opposite of the 3s swappers then. 5SFE pressure plate, 3S disc.

unless your turboing the 5s...that thing is gonna be a DOG with the AWD tranz hangin off it, but i would imagine you've already thought of that..
and yea, 5s PP and flywheel, 3s disk...problem your gonna run into is the 3s disk is larger than the 5s PP by ~10mm.
you will prolly need to have a 5s disk mated with the 3s spline.
any of the maufactueres will do it for ya, just give em a buzz.
i dont know if any other axels will work with the AWD drivetrain, i dont know of anyone using anything other than the stock axels with it.

I figure i'm going to lose about 10% more HP to the wheels, not a big deal. Power doesn't mean as much when your wheels are spinning most of the time in gravel.

AWD 5SFE > 2WD 5SFE, for rally is my thought.


Not allowed to run a turbo car until I accumulate enough points.

FYI anyone that needs a hybrid clutch go to centerforce's website.


Pull up their catalog, you can see the splines you need vs pressure plate size. Then search the whole catalog for that spline, till you find the disc size you need. Then you just have a part number and can order that part number vs getting a special clutch 'made'. I'm sure this what they do anyways, but you don't have to call or talk to anyone you can just buy an OEM setup off ebay for cheaper once you have the part number.

For example the 5sfe clutch is 224mm and splines are 1-1/8"-20.

Then I looked up the splines for E154F, 1-1/8"-21; 236mm disc size. Just searched the entire catalog looking for discs of that size.

Found that a 1970 Celica, 80 supra, 80 4runner, etc. Have the exact size needed for this setup. 224mm disc size with 1-1/8"-21 splines.
