B18FP clutch/flywheel size!

Post by cranna21 » Mon May 30, 2016 10:46 am

I've had a look through a lot of threads on here but not come up with an exact answer! I have a '91 ES fitted with a B18FP (cat+lambda) what diameter clutch should this have? It's nearing the end of its days but still has a bit of life left but without removing the box ect what size should I expect?

Or is this a question thar can only be answered on inspection?

Cheers!

Go on to eurocarparts enter your reg number select parts clutch kits and then click on details and it will give your diameter , number of splines and engine type .

=> problem solved and this weekend they have a BIG discount as well

quick search shows up as below:

Diamter (mm) : 200
Number of Teeth : 26
Plate Diamter (mm) : 200
Engine code B18 EP

next question i'll need to find an answer too... how to upgrade to 215... :?

alternatively, if i went down the 'custom made clutch' route, i could stick with a 200mm diamter but have a better friction material used? and have the pressure plate uprated?
