4AGE to W58 Bellhousings

[kerola]

Car - KE70

motor - 4AGTE

use - Drift/ Street

problem - Need to find out what is the best and most cost effective way to run a W58 gearbox with a 4AGZE flywheel

occurs/started when - When I wanted to run a 4AGZE flywheel

personal situation -
4A - W5X bellhousing are rather expensive, I have got a few prices but I'm still unsure which is going to be best way to fit a 4AGZE flywheel and be easy on the pocket.

I have been told I could get my T50 Bellhousing and W58 Bellhousing and get them Cut and Shut. Ofcourse this would be the cheapest way but I'm unsure if I will be able to fit 4AGZE flywheel in and with this can i get the clutch slave on the drivers side so i can fit the dump pipe abit easier?

dont need to use a ze flywheel jsut get a 212 and a suitable clutch, and buy the chepaer bell!

can the Filo guy be trusted though?

also keep in mind that $750NZ is $575AU right now. Doesnt AJPS have something in stock right now?

[Hen may possibly be a nut]

I've used one without ribs (from Malyasia I think originally, though may be the same source as ToyCool) for 3 years behind a 4AGZE without any troubles at all.

got my niteparts a few weeks ago about 650 delivered and looks the goods. Whilst there are good and bad stories about the various bells, I have not heard any bad stories about the niteparts (and fits the GZ flywheel)

I am looking at around 200rwkw and was considering about making a cut and shut but for all the dicking around I thought that the niteparts was the best buy with the good aussie dollar.

i have had a nite parts one for years it works mint and brendan is a good bloke with real smarts just look at his 18a trueno in video section

when installing the bell housing to the gearbox make sure you have two dowels! or else you clutch with snap

[kerola]

i just added AJPS to the list, the photos seem to be exactly the same as the phillipines bellhousing.
niteparts seems to be best.

also where do the dowels go and how do they work?
thanks

azcustom here in hobart does a adaptor plate rather than bellhousing that is quite widely used...

priced quite well too...

What is required to be done to the clutch?

Parts list?

[jaz_ae86]

Clutch needs new spline drive/centre section fitted to suit W gearbox input shaft.

When I got my new clutch i simply said it was for a 100kw 212mm flywheel using W57 gearbox. I did enquire about getting my old 200mm clutch changed but wanted the extra clamping area.

[Hen may possibly be a nut]

^^ Correct. From what I remember there are in fact some old Liteaces/Hiaces/Hiluxs which have the right clutch dimensions and splines standard.

Any half decent clutch shop can sort out a clutch for your exact setup.

My niteparts bell needed a bit of a grind (running gze gear). They also need to be drilled for the slave.
