I finally got around to fixing my broken-arse clutch yesterday. Many thanks to Wilbo for coming around and helping me re-install the gearbox, which as most of you know is a very fun job.
Anyway, turns out one of the tabs holding the springs in the friction plate snapped, which let the spring pop out and jam the clutch mechanism. Fortunately the flywheel and pressure plate weren't damaged, although they're both a bit worn now. So I threw in a stock W58 friction plate, which I think GiantTomato donated when I bought the flywheel off him a few years ago (thanks Dave!) and now it drives again.
The clutch slips like a bastard with any more than 5psi boost, but at least I can get around now. Being forced to drive around like a grandma is good motivation to get the Getrag installed. Hopefully that will happen sooner rather than later - I just need to find a cheap (or preferably free) 18R-C so I can get my Celica back on the road, then I'll be free to pull the Supra apart.
