    Default Need a tough, cheap w58 clutch (maybe out of a hilux?)

    Looking for options for a nice tough organic clutch (capable of holding 400ish NM) that's readily available, well priced and reliable.

    Making some flywheels for UZ and need to find a reliable organic clutch to suit! If anyone knows of a high-torque application that's factory fitted with a W58, or a *good* clutch company who'd be willing to make a few up, I'm all ears

    You could try NPC. They are responsible for the full-face organic living between my 2JZ and my w58. Dunno about the cheap part though, but from memory it's only 'rated' to 500ftlb/677nm its been subjected to ~550ftlb/745nm for well over a year. Plus several years of use just under its 'rated' value.

    Thanks mate

    For a custom clutch I've got endless options, but I'm thinking of a large (say 280-300mm) clutch disk with the right input spline, larger OD is free leverage!
