Are you using a GTR transmission for something? If I recall, all RWD transmissions that came on the RB's were push style right from the factory. Only the GTR's had pull style in late R32 style and newer.

I think it's OS Giken that makes the kit.

those p/ns in the thread are valid usdm p/ns. everything except the slave and the front cover. give them to a nissan dealer or punch them in online and you should be able to order them.

EDIT sorry thought you said the usdm parts. the non-usdm parts, i got a nismo slave cylinder so most aftmkt places can get it for the rb25. the front cover i believe i got from rbmotoring, they can order it. takes about 4 weeks though think it was around $35.

There is a conversion kit made by either HKS or OS Giken (IIRC) to convert it from pull to push type. I have seen the kit advertised on ebay in the rhdjapan online store. If it's not currently listed, you can e-mail them to check availability. If I were you, I'd just put my penny down and pick up a used twin plate from ebay and rebuild it. There's at least 2 auctions going on right now, I believe.

My bad then. I've only seen ECNR32 and 33 transmissions. No idea they changed them from push to pull. Learn things everyday.

There is a kit on http://www.nengun.com/catalogue/product/144 to convert from push to pull but it wont work for you. I'm sure if you ask this company they can get it for you. They are pretty cheap as well.

I've seen many pull clutches on ebay. THeres one right now for a nismo gmax pull clutch as well as a hks twin disk pull clutch. THey are used but rhdjapan offers rebuild disks.

yup, those are the parts you need. if you get all oem stuff you'll save about $75 vs. that kit. most likely all of that stuff in the kit is oem except for the stainless looking line.

yeah i spoke to Danny at RB motoring in reguards to converting to the push style clutch and he advised against it actually..he says the pull style is a far superior design and works much better with less slippage for higher hp cars...which is my main goal..i am looking for 600whp, and if i were to purchase the parts to covert it it would prob be more expensive int he long run to convert it as well as purchasing the correct push style clutch rather that staying with the original pull style and getting a Exedy pull style twin disc.
