Hey everyone,

My clutch is just about shot on my KA.

I am swapping my CA in this summer after I get the money for a few remaining parts, but my cluth in my KA isn't gonna make it that long.

I was wondering which KA clutch will work with the CA transmission/flywheel.

Will the ACT NX4-HDSS Street Clutch for $300 at enjuku work? I am asking because I remember reading somewhere that one company will fit, and another will not.

Any help would be appreciated.

as long as the diameter of the friction surface is the same, 240mm if memory serves and the spline count is the same it should drop right in.

The CA uses a 225mm clutch.

I'd be interested to know what KA clutches fit as we only really have the Jap units available over here in the UK and they're bloody expensive :(

what manufacturers are available at your auto parts store. Here I see exedy and parrut, do you get those? I could probably look the number up.

Nope we don't get any of those makes.

We get LUK, Helix, AP, Borg & Beck.

Well the ACT clutch is 225 MM according to their site so I suppose it should fit then. I have read something about needing to dremel either the housing or a part of the clutch to make it fit.. I am not sure exactly what part of either this is that would need to be dremeled.
