Actually, a lot of performance aftermarket clutches or at least the pressure plates look stock. They usually take an OEM pp and modify it to apply more pressure.



If he is saying "aftermarket", that doesn't necessarily mean its a performance clutch.

 

heres a quote from the discription......... not aftermarket....high performance

"You're bidding on a high performance aftermarket clutch and pressure plate from an 90 GTU. As you can see in the pics they are in great shape. This set-up will work on any 83-91 N/A Rx-7."

 

How do you know it's high performance though? You are just taking his word for it..



Either way it looks to be in good shape.. I just hope it actually is high performance.



Changing a clutch is pretty easy as far as I'm concerned, but the only clutch change I have done was when I pulled the motor and tranny right out of the car...

 

well right now i wouldnt really care if it was high performance or oem. mine was really bad. it was slipping alot. 71 dollars isnt bad even for an oem setup. but do u think it'll fit considering mine is an 88 and that is from a 90? in that description he says it will.

 

I'm pretty sure all the 84-91 NA 13B's take the same size PP and disc.

 

You should all ways replace the Throw Out bearing, and greese it. Check the pilot bearing in the back of the shaft and replace the seal ( You have to remove the seal to get to the bearing) if all of the little needle bearings are in place add more greese and put it back to gether. It is all ways best for optium life to machine the flywheel and check the rear main seal at the same time.

If you are trying to cut corners press on teh bearing and see if it feels notchy ( can not think of a better word to describe it, but a profession mechanic could tell you by its feel)

 

Are you sure? I have always had to put in some fluid, but you don't need to drain it, unless you want it all over you. And tranny fluid is so horrid smelling.



I would drain some of the fluid out of the tranny. It just makes life easier. And get some help, because trannys are heavy. Unless you have a car lift, and air tools. Have fun.
