Another V8 supra (turbo)!!
Read my site re Dellow Automotive.
Go with a CRS belhousing.

No. I used my 7M lightened flywheel and adapted it for the 1UZ.

There is a guy in QLD who makes/sells 1UZ flywheels that are lighter than the CRS version.
Im probably going to use one for my 1UZ conversion.

SupraPete: Can you supply details of how this was done? Was the 1UZ ringgear put on the 7M? Who did the machining?
M.W.P.: Does this guy have a webpage or any info online? Do you know what they cost?

Theres a spacer between the auto flywheel and the engine. This was used as a template to drill new holes in the 7M flywheel. The ringear was taken off the auto flywheel and heat shrunk onto the 7M flywheel. It was then balanced (cost more than machining).
Machining was done by a local shop which I don't know the name, and balancing at another nameless machining shop.

I just found out that the CRS bellhousing is made for the shorter 160mm input shaft than some R154s have (Hilux?).
If you want to put one on a Supra R154 with the 190mm input shaft they sting you another $275 for a spacer plate.

That could explain all my clutch problems. My spacer is only 16mm (plus another 1 or 2mm for gap. If I add another 12mm it might fix my clutch problem completely.
That explains a lot. Also means dellow is worse than I originally thought as they didn't tell me that, they actually said the one they sold me was *definately* for a 190mm shaft.
Thinking must be done about this. ... spend another $500 to get the gearbox dropped, a new bearing for the clutch slave cylinder and the legs of the slave cylinder shortened another 10-12mm. And to find a shop that'll do it all for me as I don't feel like doing the work myself.

Haha awesome! They remember now, but couldn't help me then (even when I brought my gearbox in to show them). Can't believe they remembered me from 2 and a half years ago.
Well now I know my problem for sure. Now I can go about fixing it!
Now if I get a spacer I'll need to change my mounts, so maybe just grind down my slave cylinder legs on the shaft. Still need the bearing fom my slave cylinder.

GET THE FLYWHEEL BALANCED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It weighs 14 kg and is NOT balanced
It spins at up to 7000 rpm and if the threaded to the head (NOT SHANKED) bolts shear and it gets away it wont stop at bellhousing,floorpan,legs,windscreen,etc.

If it's TT ,.. I'd take a guess at saying that clutch will slip unless the clamping force is on the extreme side, then you will need a leg like Arnie ,..
Justen should be able to confirm this as well,
Sorry don't want to sound negative just trying to save you the hassle of putting it all together then having to remove it
I have tried 3 single plate setup all ended up slipping in a short time ,.. so have since gone to multi plate
Justen with his TT GT4 1u is going through the same process ,.. i think he is on his 2nd or 3rd clutch as well
Hope this helps,.. this is not meant to be negative just some advice

I ran a single plate briefly...just to get the car to Dubbo really as it was all i could get my hands on while waiting for the custom twin plate. It wouldn't hold any psi but then i didn't expect it to. The twin 5 puck button clutch (i have pics if you want) holds the current 270rwkw...just. Signs of slipping when i pulled it out to do the tranny swap. The new setup is twin 4 puck (long story) so see how this more agressive puck arrangement holds up.
Not many of these on the road so if you have any questions drop me an email. Should be a pearler, keen to see the finished result.

Allan: What is so exrtremely poor about that casting?
FASTFOO: How do you know that flywheel is not balanced? Usually the holes are drilled around the outer edge which you wouldnt see. Realistically you should get the clutch and flywheel together balanced as one.
1ndecent: Just so you can get an idea of clutch, i have a similar clutch to yours with 3000lb clamping force. It has no problem with my landy with 400hp and mass off around 1850kg with driver and fuel. It doesent slip like a normal organic full face but is still easy to drive. Main problem is the 3000lb clamp pushes my hydraulics to their limits and is arnie leg worthy.

I plan to get the flywheel and clutch balanced as an assembly, and will be using proper 12.9 capscrews, not the 8.8 bolts provided. Aiming for 8000rpm too.

This i what my clutch has had done to it.
The other guys are probably right though, youll end up needing a twin plate

I am aiming to get the thing running before the blowers go on. It will help me make sure that everything is OK mechanically, and be much easier to register the engine conversion. I wouldn't be surprised if I do need another clutch down the track, particularly if I fit a decompressed motor for higher boost.

Some pics of your clutch evolution would be great! Clamp loads, holding torque figures and prices would be good too. I am going to run with the single plate as long as it lasts, but it never hurts to plan ahead...

Drop me an email if you want clutch pics as i don't have a site to FTP from. As for clamp force it's a whole different kettle of fish with twin plates as you don't need to have huge pressure as you have doubled the friction surface. My setup uses what would be considered a heavy duty holden six diaphram. Pedal feel is quite light, barely more than stock feel. Thus far there was no noticeable slip laying down 270rwkw thru a pair of 255 18's. there were some heat spots on things when i took it out though so there is some slip but nothing you would worry about.

I'm using one from Dellow, it was $350 plus $25 to have the ringgear from my 1UZ flexplate fitted. There is a pic earlier in this thread.
Suprapete is using a redrilled 7M flywheel.
Not sure what Justen is using, it looks very different to mine.
If anyone has pics of the "lightweight" flywheel that Quad Cams Australia makes please post them up along with price.

QCA's
$340 plus $120 for a new ring gear.
At least thats what the price was 18months ago when I bought it.
Thus far it has shat on the quality of any other flywheel I've seen.

I think thats due to the fact that the release bearing was always putting pressure on the plate, so I wasn't getting full clamping force.

I didn't know you had this problem.

Firstly I didn't put the front oil seal for the gearbox in correctly, so the clutch plate got infected with oil.
But I pulled the clutch off and cleaned it with degreaser/carby cleaner, etc etc, replaced the front oil seal and reinstalled.
Took a couple of days before the grip was back, but it was fine after that.
Ever since day one its only needed about 5mm pushing on the clutch pedal to get the pressure plate to begin disengaging (ie it you are resting your foot there, and stand on the throttle the revs will fly up)
I just think the stock release bearing carrier has positioned the bearing too close to the pressure plate with the way the CRS bellhousing mounts the fork.
I'll be modding it before it goes back in.

I just had the clamp load on the clutch measured at 2000lbs.
The chap who measured it is going to increase the clamp load as much as possible, he estimated around 2500lbs...
