whats up guys i was wondering if the sr clutch would work on a ka24de. to be exact its a s13 blacktop sr clutch on too a 93 ka24de. the reason i ask is because i have my friends sr and he told me his clutch was like a stage 2 or 3, and he gave me the sr (bad pistn rings and the 4 piston has a crack in it) anyways would the clutch work on the ka is there any way possible.

oh and i did search and google it too couldnt find enough info.

The spline counts are identical. However, it's the bolt pattern of the pressure plate and the diameter of the clutch that make it not work.

You can pay someone a lot of money to redrill your flywheel to make it work, I suppose. But by that point, you could have bought an upgraded KA clutch

yes you can.. they are the exact same transmission.. all you need to do is swap out the bellhousing.

the sr clutch is a diff size than the ka clutch... its bigger and the ka clutch is tiny. i dont think its worth the hastle and most likely its the pressure plate that wont match up to the bolt holes on the flywheel... the ka pressure plate wont work because like i said its too small to fit the sr clutch. if for some reason u decide to make it work take pix. if u do want to run a hybrid clutch setup on the ka then search white bunny. i myself have a rb fw w/ a z32 na clutch/pressure plate.

the clutch disk will work with the splines but the pressure plate and flywheel off the sr will not. make sure the pressure plate is the same size as the clutch disk and if it is, you should be good to go.

I still recommend you consider looking for an upgraded clutch that fits the KA's flywheel. The KA-T guys will point you in the proper direction. The SR clutch/pressure plate will be too much of a hassle to be fitted to the KA flywheel. And if you're staying with a stock, non-boosted motor, it's more or less wasted money to dump an upgraded clutch in there as the stock clutch, if taken care of and isn't very old, will hold up just fine to the power output the KA delivers.
