so you need to crewel under the steering wheel to reach the place where the clutch pedal is connected to the piston ?

did crewel under the steering wheel and found the piston rod connected to the pedal. There were two nuts. 10mm and 12mm. Tried turning them with spanners but they were bloody tight and could not turn at all. Any easy way to do this ??

Depends on what gearbox you want to use, or rather how long you want the box to last. If your using a standard g series you may find a softer clutch to be better protection against damage. You can use any flywheel and matching clutch. The gtr ones are bigger than n/a versions.

I went with an organic mx5 clutch.
