I read in the stickies that the CA18ET Clutch disk and pressure plate work correct? Does the TO bearing and pilot bushing change over as well or no?

fwiw, the KA24DE and RB25DET share the same alignment tool.

Probably. I just got a CA18DE alignment tool, works fine and it cost me $4.

Pilot bushing goes into the back of the engine...so thats a non clutch compatibility issue. TO bearing can be the standard S13/14/15 or a bigger Z32 unit. Also, I'm thinking that most Nissan clutches have the "24 spline 1 inch" sizing....so pretty much any Nissan alignment tool will work.

I'm running a oem replacement clutch and pressure plate for a ca18et.

Everything bolted up 100% perfectly.
