One item that was not included in the pic. of the Kit's components is the Supra's input shaft adapter race bushing.

The Supra's input shaft has a very small pilot race. (as pictured in the left.)
The Mazda on the other hand requiers a much larger Pilot bearing race. (on the right)


This piece is included as part of the kit.

Pic of the Tilton Anular Clutch release piston assembly on a Getrag V 160




This push type piston release bearing is used on all Tilton type multi disc clutch covers.
Also on QM, Ram, McLeod, and many other race type clutch systems

Any interest in doing a group buy if we have 10 solid buyers? Perhaps give the first group a discount. Although I do not mind paying $1900 for a quality product, I figure it would benefit us and yourself if you do a 10 man group buy for the product and lower the price for the group buy.

Just a thought, if not you'll be my business either way.

Are there a limited number of these being made?

3.73 Ring & Pinion gears for the FD.

Next, I will start a new thread for a 3.73 Ring & Pinion final drive gear set adaptable to the FD diff. carrier.
Ideal in combination w/ the Getrag, or anyone looking for more top end out of their FD w/ the OEM Box.

Yes, I would be interested.
It would same me a lot of Internet time and time is one thing I have NOT much of !

I have spoken w/ Ramy (FD Newbie), he said he would arrange a GB on my behalf.
Maybe You can get w/ him and proceed on this.

I would also like to set up a group buy on what I feel would be the correct and best Clutch & Flywheel package for this.
This way I can asure NO incompatability problems when customers install their gearboxes.

An attractively priced twin disc Ceramic/ Metalic package, or a full but expensive Carbon/ Carbon package based on the same Flywheel and Cover setup.

I am looking at offering a 10% discount on a group buy of 8 Kit's or better.

Geez....no patience! Let the man finish posting! LOL.

FYI, I'm running the GB on these parts, and it'll include everything from the adapter to the clutch & flywheel to the tranny too if you guys like. I didn't post anything yet because *I'm waiting for Carlos to finish posting!* (Patience is it's own virtue my friend).

Its a forum - people have the right to post as they please

I'll keep an eye out for the GB, and I've been following this thread since day one... as you can see I haven't inquired about anything until this point

That side by side illustration was the first one I made 6 years ago.
And BTW has worked well.

The new ones will have a chamfer w/ a 37 degee lead in angle, and micropolished.

I dunno if we can do a GB on custom driveshafts, since how far back each person's 20B sits may be very different, depending on the subframe you use. But I'll def. see if we can still get a discount if we buy a certain quantity, even if the measurements are different.

Having said that, assuming that people joining this GB are building a roadracer and NOT a dragster, I'd like to use a carbon fiber driveshaft. A carbon shaft is excellent for street and road race (and very light street/drag use if you're brave), as it's very light and absorbs a lot of the shock on launch and shifting.
