I've searched this site as well as many others and can't find the answer to what I'm looking for. I'm changing my clutch on a sr20det redtop and want to replace the seals when I'm in there. I read somewhere that a sentra ser rear main works but am not sure of the year or part number. Also anyone have any clue on what seal is needed for the transmission seal that goes around the splined shaft that slides into the clutch disk (not sure on what that seal would be called). Also is there anything else that I should replace while in there other than the flywheel, disk, pressure plate etc. Any advice would be appreciated.

Phase2Motortrend carries the rear motor seal (assuming that's what you meant)
I would change that tranny seal only if I needed to. Is it leaking?
Clutch bearing, pivot and throw out bearing are the other things to replace when doing a through clutch job. Replace slave (Nismo) and master cylinder (OEM Nissan) for super pimp clutch job or if those parts are suspect.
Follow torque specs aswell.

You should definetly invest in a new clutch master and slave cylinder (if your new clutch has a heavy duty pressure plate).

Don't buy from nissan, get Tokico (same as Nabco aka OEM Nissan) from nopi.com.

^Shh.. it's a secret.
