As to yours, one of my new treasures reveals that the 5mge and 7mge parts numbers are both 1340549175. Interestingly, the 86 Cressida/Supra 7mge and the 83 Supra 5mge share the same disc and pressure plate numbers.

yes, you can simply use the same parts numbers and buy a clutch off the shelf, and it will fit. this is the 'easy way' so to speak, but when youre out looking for the best clutch for an application, it can get waayyyy more complicated than that... read below...

As to the dimensions, Sachs site says that the measurement is 225 for the 5mge and 7mge non-turbo and 240 for the turbo. Good luck.

this is a perfect example of where, if you bought the catalogue part, sure it'd fit, but it ISNT the best solution. the 5me should be the ONLY late model m engine which should run a 225mm clutch. sure, itll fit other engines, but i can most definiely assure you the 7m runs ATLEAST a 236mm clutch, and can run up to 240mm. this is where you need to pull the thing out, go to a clutch place, and say - here, find one to fit.

NEVER belive everything you read... it can be so so wrong
