PZJ77 clutch replacement options

[MrThing]

Hi all. I'm after options that might be. out there for a replacement clutch for a 1991 PZJ77. This is a 1PZ engine (5 cyl) mated to a R151F trans.

Is anyone aware of any clutches from another vehicle that'd be compatible? I'm not having a lot of luck searching for a direct replacement. I think I remember reading once that there might be a Toyota Dyna (truck) clutch that worked. I do plan on changing to a single mass flywheel, which I think will make finding a replacement easier.

I've been hunting around a bit, and it seems where I am (NZ) there isn't really anything available that is OEM replacement. There are a few listings for kits that are out of production. I get it, this is a bit of an odd ball combo.

I can get a SMF machined (OG is DMF), so I'm not super worried there, though it would probably be cheaper to find something off the shelf.

I've never met a 1PZ so could well be wrong, but couldn't you use a 1HZ single mass flywheel and clutch from 1HZ/R151 HZJ7# or potentially HZJ105?

For some reason I hadn't thought of that. I found this post: 1PZ flywheel trouble - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/1pz-flywheel-trouble.277552/post-4386138

It looks like they can be made to fit, but require a few work arounds. Will keep it in my back pocket.

Have you checked with uni-clutch to see if they have a option for the PZ?
