Gday all, great site. I have managed to find an old rat trap style clutch mechanism on ebay, to replace the dodgy frankenstein job fitted by a previous owner on my 253 hj ute with a supra 5 sd conversion. Im expecting it in the post any day now, trouble is Ive never seen one in action and in the pic I have it looks like a set of bloody bagpipes!

Lucky Phil
