There is also a mechanic in my area that swears by them.
Stage three will be more than enough to accomodate your torque.

Stage 4 and 5 are designed more for track use and would not provide a comfortable ride.


Man i am using stage 3 and it is not enough at all because of this i will go to stage 5 and then i will rise my boost from 22 psi to 25 psi.. the stage 3 can not handle the 22 psi how in the hell i will go to 25 psi with it

I guess I misunderstood.
If you are going to be boosted to 25 psi, that cannot be a daily driver, right?
Feel free to use a stage 5, but I'm telling you, the characteristics of the car will change dramatically. Also, the stage 5 is only intended for track use.
As soon as the clutch engages the flywheel, it will grip and the car will lurch. It won't be a smooth launch.
If you dont mind that, get the stage 5. I was just trying to help you avoid a disappointment with the new driving style.
Good luck with your purchase.

Yes my camry is not a daily use. I know that the characteristics of the car will change dramatically but this the only solution I have what should I do :(

Before you buy check out he MR2 forums lots of them use the 1mz and they might be able to tell you if a dual disk will fit from another car. Or call SPEC and ask them how much it would cost for them to make you one.

Check out
http://www.ramclutches.com/Specialty%20 ... system.htm
they make Camry clutches and dual clutches ask about an application for your car.


Some info from the MR2 guys http://www.mr2.com/kb/pdf.php?category=15

Transmission: The following transmission will work with some modification
E153 - although big compared to the s54 it's much stronger and can take a beating. Mr2
transmission may need to have it's dowel pins remove to fit on the block. I didn't document the
number of bolts used in a mr2T bellhousing as im using a v6 bellhousing w/ internals. but from my
understanding it will cover more than the s54. Theres also a plus to using this tranny since somecomes with LSD.
S54 - Opposite from the tranny above the mounting holes need to be enlarge.
note: if using an e153 on a n/a chasis you need the rear turbo hubs, axles and shifter cables
Clutch/Flywheel:
You need a v6 flywheel from any of the engine listed above that came with a manual transmission.
With the exception of the vz's truck flywheel. The MR2T flywheel will not work as the crank pattern is
different; you can weld/redrill it but that will just compromise the strenght of the flywheel. Using a
e153 you can use a stock turbo cluch setup but if using a s54 you need a E153 pressure plate and a
s54 clutch combo (splines on the tranny is different)
Carrier bearing:
Every v6 from my understanding has one except for the longitudinal mounted ones like the 5vz's.
BUt if your using an S54 the axle doesnt need it. This is only for those using the E153. The bearing
on Mr2T axle needs to be moved about 1/4" left or right im not sure anymore it's been too long.

I have checked the MR2 forums and I saw many of them used the 1MZ but I found one who used the twin plate clutch and here is what he said:
"Unfortunately, the 1MZ crank flange uses smaller diameter flywheel bolts to mount the flywheel so the bolt pattern has to be custom made for a 1MZ"
So this man is using a custom made flywheel and a twin plate clutch.
The clutch is the same but the flywheel is not and if I want to use the twin plate clutch kit it will include the flywheel.
I do not know why they made a twin plate clutch for MR2 and they did not make one for the Camry or the solara :x

lol- cuz they never expected a 1mz can need those kinds of power holder, unlike the 3sgte, which starts out with more potential


as for a twin-plate clutch- I'm sure that the driveability of it would not be much better than a stage 4 or 5 clutch
HaHa
