i am not sure if it will fit but i know tc has different gearing ratio and i am not sure if the tranny is the same.

but are you turboed? why do you need stage3 clutch? if you dont have heavy mod, you do not need performance clutch. in fact, i heard most of people runs performance clutch on their daily drive car regret about it because it is too hard to drive.

Your auto tranny doesn't shift until 6700 rpm? Does it sound like its shifting at 6700rpm, or similar to how it shifted straight from the dealer?

Oh, I'm not sure what exactly is the change, but the tC transmission has nearly identical gear ratios, suckier highway economy (29 vs 33)... I guess its the higher 5th gear ratio and final drive

http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/showthread.php?t=121453

tC:
1st Gear Ratio: 3.538:1
2nd Gear Ratio: 2.045:1
3rd Gear Ratio: 1.333:1
4th Gear Ratio: 0.972:1
5th Gear Ratio: 0.775:1
Final drive 4.24

Solara 2.4 manual:
3.538:1 first gear ratio
2.045:1 second gear ratio
1.333:1 third gear ratio
0.972:1 fourth gear ratio
0.731:1 fifth gear ratio
Final drive 3.94
