    Thanks for taking the time to do that! The ebay seller said it would work for 2nd gen but waiting for response to clarify if its 5 speed or 6. Both are cheap peace of mind.

    Too many trucks and mods to list.. check builds
    Honestly.. installing the clutch disc without the tool isn’t too hard just needs to be close to center. I had to do it with the v6 swap in the mr2 since a clutch alignment tool doesn’t exist for the never offered with a manual 2gr-fe

    I have had to eyeball a clutch a time or two and have not experienced any problems that I can remember. I even used a broken broomstick with tape placed where the clutch disc would be to align a clutch.
