V160 Tilton Adjustable Hydraulic Clutch Release Bearing Kit

Improve Your Clutch Engagement

Do you have a clutch that is like an on/off switch? This can happen with clutches with high ratio pressure plates. I use this same bearing on all our T56 Magnum swaps, and this bearing will make your clutch have a wider engagement range rather an on/off switch that comes with using some of the fork bearings or movement alteration kits.

This adjustable hydraulic clutch release bearing will allow you to run almost any push style clutch for the 6-speed Getrag V160 or V161 in a Supra or other 2JZ powered car. This also fits perfectly on the Nissan GT-R R34 Getrag V160 transmission.

From my experience the Tilton hydraulics are the best quality, and I feel like choosing the right bearing is of the utmost importance. A bearing failure can be absolute pain to fix, as it will require removing the transmission to be serviced or replaced.

This bearing does require quite a bit of fluid volume, so it does require upgrading your master cylinder to a larger bore. 

Upgraded Tilton Clutch master kits are available for the most popular chassis.

Watch the following video to learn about properly installing your HRB, as well as how to properly measure and set the clutch air gap up.

NOTE: This video is for a T56 setup, but the basic principles for how to setup your release bearing air gap apply. On transmissions that have a bellhousing that is non-removable you just have to measure from the front edge of the bellhousing back into the bearing face instead.
