Yes this is normal for Japanese manual import trucks, they were fitted with larger flywheel it hasn't been changed or added. Uk manual spec trucks are not the same until they go 24 valve.

thanks for that. so all hj81 are fitted with the 300 mm why is it all that's listed is the 275mm clutch even when you give the cars details

Hmmm Andy. First time I've heard this. Could be right but it wouldn't explain you ordering yours and it coming as the smaller one.

Im always learning even now. But will ask the question to customers with the import manuals to see if they have had te same thing.

I will never stop learning. I love absorbing info mate. Remembering it is the issue though.
