Swap Clutch Question, 3sgte with stock 5sfe tranny and drivetrain Options

[Aaagogo]

Hi guys,

some of you might know, my swap has been goin on for months... got delayed from school work and what not...

anyway i've got 2 mths to complete the swap b4 my GF comes over to visit and i can bring her out in my convertible.

Ok, here's the question,

what kind of hybrid clutch system do i have to get for the 3sgte engine to mate with my stock 5sfe tranny.

Thanx guys,

PS, many more qns will follow as i start more work on my swap.

Clutch:
if using the gt tranny with the 3sgte motor, you will need:
5sfe disk (or a custom made 3sgte disk, with the splines for the 5sfe tranny)
5sfe throwout bearing
5sfe alignment tool
3sgte pressure plate
3sgte flywheel (or just get your stock one resurfaced)

if you are going to use an mr2 turbo tranny, then all you need to do is buy a clutch kit for a 90-93 turbo mr2.

be carefull when buying clutch disks for the 5sfe tranny. a stage 1 disk for the 5sfe is not the same thing as a stage 1 disk for the 3sgte. so if you get something like a stock oem clutch or a ACT street disk, it probably will not hold the power you need to put down.
if you call up a company like Spec or Clutchmasters and tell them about your project, they can make you a custom disk that can hold the power you will make and have the correct spline count that you need.
