Well, I got a r33 gts-t transmission. I still need to get a clutch, and will probably go with a ACT, Spec or RPS. The question is, I'm missing all the flywheel, pressure plate and transmission bellhousing bolts. Does anyone know for a fact whether it's possible to use any z32 or other US market bolts in place of these. I'm a little paranoid about just using some of the random bolts in my Nissan parts buckets since the clutch/transmission are expensive items.

Also, can the slave cylinder be sourced from any US car, such as the Z32? I searched and didn't really see anyone mention anything about that. Someone mentioned they used their s13 slave.

BOLTS ARE SIMILAR TO THE Z32 SO YOU SHOULD BE FINE

I'M USING MY S13 SLAVE, AS LONG AS ITS A PUSH TYPE SLAVE YOU SHOULD BE FINE.

you can get a flywheel at http://www.tophatperformance.com $400+ shipping , i think that all the RB flywheels are interchangable, can anyone conform that? Thanks
