I wanted to know if the two used the same clutch setup? The GTI-R clutch is a different size then the SR20DET out of the Silvia so I was curious if it was the same as the US model?

Not sure, but I'm 98% certain the flywheel is different. I seem to remember hearing about people having to drill the USM flywheel because the bolts are larger.

I'm sure the folks on the turbo forum will know however.

yes the clutchs are the same 215mm the bolt holes/bolts are shorter from what i remember. Something along those lines but its a simple solution thats for sure.

So a spare OS Gikken twin plate kit could work on the US model SR20DE?

I've got a gti-r flywheel and clutch here at the house. Let me look later today and see. The OS Gikken is at the shop and is for a s-13 I never looked at to see if it will fit a fwd de.

rwd clutch wont fir on fwd its a different diameter than rwd .

The Gti-r clutch is different. The disc and pressure plate resemble the the Rwd version of the Det. Its also noticeably larger as well as the gti-r disc is slightly larger than the fwd flywheel.
