Discuss the RB20, RB25 and RB26 series engines.

The disk is exactly the same, I just need to check the pressure plate and bearings.

the pressure plate and disk both fit, the bearing is not an exact fit but will work. The flywheel will not fit from 300zx, there was a post about this earlier. I have already tried it, I will post pics when I get everything together.

It works, but the pilot bearing is a bit tight (well in my case anyway). also the the throwout arm stop from a ka transmission works, the throwout arms are the same, so is the throwout clip.

so all in all the N/A 300ZX clutch works.

yes. 2 of the dowel guide holes on the 300zx clutch may be a smidge off (tap with hammer to seat them) on the rb20 flywheel but all of the bolt holes line up exact.

THERE WAS NOTHING OFF ON THE RB20 FLYWHEEL AT ALL. THE ONLY PROBLEM WAS THE PILOT BEARING WAS RATHER LARGE.
