I'm making this its own thread for search purposes, just another story of a clutch disc losing a spring on a 3SGTE swap with the S54 tranny.
The swap had 30k on it, I am unsure if the clutch was new when it was swapped or if it was used, but I'm assuming it was new. So 30k and dead... PICS:        If you look up the name ASCO it directs you to Aisin which is the OEM manufacturer for Toyota Clutches. This tells me that a quality, performance clutch is necessary for a 3SGTE swapped with an s54. I know most people already know that, but I just wanted to add another story and some more proof to the argument. This post has been edited by jcbass7: Apr 28, 2012 - 5:23 PM |

I can't seem to find that thread now. yes a 3sgte/3sge beams to a s54 transmission. But anyhow I already know what clutch combo I need Hey guys have you talked to spec about the springs breaking off the discs??? don't know how many cases this has happened with spec clutches. It happened to a 6gc member with a near stock 3rd gen 3sgte on a stage 1 hybrid spec clutch setup...
