of so 2 days agao i had my friend who is a certified tech change my cluch. i bought a used exedy stage 1 clutch/pressure plate from a friend with 2k on it.
i go to the nissan dealership next to my work and get an oem throw out bearing. we get it back in and everything and we turn it on to bleed the clutch and to test it and when i hold the clutch pedal down it makes a loud sceeching noise and a quite a bit of smoke came from under the hood. so my question is could an sr oem throw out bearing work with the stiffer pressure plate or would i have to get a exedy one?
thanks all

Sounds like someone pressed the TOB on the sleave backwards

i had bought 2 throw out bearings cause there were 2 different part numbers. so it might be just that its reversed? but would the stock one be strong enough for the upgraded pressure plate?
