FWD EJ18 Clutch question with pics

bue car · 05-16-2012, 01:00 AM

Hi guys,

I bought the exedy replacement kit from amazon, it was little cheaper than the dealer. Upon opening the box, I noticed right away the TB looks to be for AWD or maybe just 2.5L's (all my AWD are 2.5L so IDK for sure). I spoke to Amazon and they offered a refund. They also told me to check the rest of the parts to confirm fitment. So I took some pics.

Correct one on the left

I know parts change and update, and these could be the parts i need besides the TB, as I have the correct one from the dealer, question is, should I keep and use these or return, pay more to the dealer, and possibly get the same parts?

The kit i bought is the KSB02 - the one per the Exedy website and confirmed fitment on amazon.

Amazon.com: EXEDY KSB02 OEM Replacement Clutch Kit: Automotive

I noticed less material on the pressure plate surrounding the outside, could be weight savings?

The clutch itself has a snout on my one currently, and no snout on the new one. Also, look at the gap bewteen the material and spring board center. Or whatever it's called.

I appreciate any help, I may just return it tomorrow...
