Glancn Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Sup. I'm changing the clutch on my Corona. It's got a 3T-C with the original flywheel, some sort of clutch kit with 200mm pressure plate (not sure what its adapted from), with a W55 box. Went to repco to get a clutch kit but they couldn't recommend a suitable clutch kit. They reckoned that one for a RT40 Corona would fit cos it was a 200mm one :S Any ideas which clutch would work? Mate reckoned the kit for a GX61 would work but they didn't have any kits for that model Cressida :S Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikuni Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Try anywhere other than repco. BnT, specilist clutch places possibly or even Appco. Repco are so shocking I don't even bother with them anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glancn Posted September 17, 2006 Author Share Posted September 17, 2006 Sweet, will try those options. A mate mechanic is helping me so I'm just going with where he gets his parts from. I bought the car with the box on so I have no idea what combo was used! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glancn Posted September 20, 2006 Author Share Posted September 20, 2006 Sorted. Ended up mixing and matching from other clutch kits. Pressure plate - TA22 Celica Clutch - 200mm TT142 (I think) Bearing - from some other Toyota Gotta get a couple of new mid-gbox mount rubber things now, bit dodge so the box and driveshaft move up and down and side to side a bit :S (noticable accelerating from low speed out of corners, tugging etc).
