Re: Clutch for 3TC

Hi Bruce, I was using the sprung ceramic button last time out. They gave me that combo after I found at mid 12's on the quarter mile the organic sprung clutch was slipping slightly. Streetability with the sprung ceramic button clutch was quite good although not quite as comfortable as the organic on...

Re: Clutch for 3TC

Hi there mate, I deal with NPC Clutch in Brisbane Qld for my 3TC clutch stuff. How they would compare to importing something I cannot say but if you tell them honestly what you are going to be doing with it they can make the right clutch. They made the clutch behind my 3TC turbo which I was very hap...

Re: mazda b2000 pistons for 3tc

why not use 3tc forgies if you're buying aftermarket?? Hehe mostly because the price was right! I was offered a deal by a Caldina owner who had a set of brand new 3SGTE forgies with nowhere to install them and delivered to my door at half the cost of new store bought 3TC forgies... :D Cheers, Jason

Jason...what kind of fuel regulator are you running? I could only find a 1:1 that would allow 20PSI of boost. Can you shed some light on your fuel set up... Thanks, Dirck Hi Dirck, I use the Mallory 4307M I think looking at their catalogue. Don't be confused by the rating of 4-20psi or such since t...

Re: mazda b2000 pistons for 3tc

From pictures found on google, the beams pistons seem to be flat top with 4 valve pockets whereas the 3tgte piston is domed with the outer edge flush with the block. from this i would assume a reduction in compression from an...

Re: mazda b2000 pistons for 3tc

Hi there, With the 3SGTE or related family pistons i.e. BEAMS 3SGE the stock 3TC rods (or replacement 3TC rods) need to be used. I had the stock 3TC rods converted to floating pin to use the 3SGE BEAMS pins. In hind site it was probably not much cheaper than a nice set of eagle rods by the time they...
