CD009 Single Disc Clutches for Manual Swaps

When we took a look at the previous generation of adapter plates, all we could see was room for improvement and higher quality. We wanted a plate that would mount PERFECTLY with zero slop. It needed to look good and perform even better. DON'T get stuck with an overvalued, sloppy plate that ends up costing you input shafts and has poor fitment. You can go with a less expensive alternative and end up with broken parts, or you can do it right the first time with us! No complaints with over 5 years of service.

This billet aluminum adapter plate reuses your automatic 1UZ, 2UZ or 3UZ bellhousing. (U1 or U2 from the 4 speed and 5 speed autos. 3UZ 6 speed bellhousing will not fit). It will require you to cut off the CD009 bellhousing, which gives MUCH more room to work with in most chassis. Alignment of the input shaft becomes dependent on this plate and not the quality of the bell housing cut, so worry not! This isn't like other kits out there. This will also fit 2UZs, though the kit was designed to use the U1 bellhousing specifically.

Regardless of which clutch you use, you will need to use the Quarter Master throw out bearing. 

With single disc clutch setups, this kit is designed to use our custom flywheel that uses off the shelf "Z32 turbo" (89-96 Nissan 300ZX twin turbo) clutches, which are inexpensive, readily available, and hold power well. 

Please see the listing below for the flywheel needed. Please note that with a single disc clutch, this requires a proprietary flywheel. OUR "OEM STYLE" AND "LIGHTWEIGHT" XAT FLYWHEELS WILL NOT WORK WITH THIS TRANSMISSION. You will need the specific CD009 flywheel made for this application.

The twin disc setups include their own flywheel, but will also need a ring gear for the starter (the OEM auto flex plate). 

Included with purchase on this listing:

• Adapter plate with hardware to install
• Quill tube for mounting the hydraulic throw out bearing
• Pilot bushing adapter, with bushing installed
• Throw out bearing (optionally)

XAT Racing took a hard look at the concept, and decided to go all in with the "Toyota Small-Block" design. These V8s have started becoming overwhelmingly popular over the past few years! This will fit all versions of this transmission: CD001, CD003, CD005, CD008, CD009, JK41A, JK41B, JK40C, 1EA0A, and 1EA0B from the 2003-2008 Nissan 350Z/Fairlady Z, 2009-2020 370Z, Skyline V35 and V36 non-GTR sedan and coupe, and Infiniti G35 and G37 

Our products are CAD designed with OEM blocks and transmissions on professional equipment by industry professionals. No bad measurements, no flame cuts, no warped discs, no nonsense. You should be using a 3/4" master cylinder in tandem with the TOB we use.

This is the missing link for doing the 1UZFE, 2UZFE, or 3UZFE swap, or simply adding a manual transmission to your already existing UZ powered vehicle (LS400, SC400, and GS400 included). Our CNC process for manufacturing the plate results in an extremely precise adapter plate, laser tight tolerances, and a focus on quality that has yielded a product that will produce less wear on the transmission and clutch. The kits being sold by our "competition" are routinely a few thousands off and have sloppy fitting dowel pin holes. We have even seen competitor's products first hand being warped right out of the box! The adapter kits come with the needed pilot adapter and bushing as well. This is the tried and true kit from XAT Racing, except no imitations when it comes to 1UZs..

You can also use the less expensive RAM throw out bearing with this kit, however we do not support it. You will need to drill and tap the plate at your own risk to mount one.

You may also need other manual conversion parts, depending on your chassis. Please keep in mind you may need to use a 3/4" bore master cylinder with this kit. The factory master cylinder may be enough, however it will ultimately depend on your application. The majority of Toyota car manuals have a 5/8" bore master. The optional master cylinder we provide may require further chassis modification to bolt up to your firewall.

The GKTech shifter is great for relocating the shifter fit Lexus SC fitment and MkIV Supra fitment. Should also fit other applications as well, though that will depend on the chassis you're using and where the engine is mounted

If you're using one of our adapter plates to put a Nissan 6 speed behind your 1UZ, 2UZ, 3UZ, 1JZ, or 2JZ as well as our single disc flywheel, you'll need a clutch to put down that power too!

Rated for 480 ft lbs, but similar versions of this very same clutch has been popular for 600+ ft lbs builds for quite some time. We used this very clutch in the 2JZ '71 El Camino project we built. Smooth, stock pedal feel, and easily daily driveable, yet still capable of holding boosted V8 power.

If you are using an adapter from a different company,we can likely still supply you with the clutch you need. You will need to verify what type of clutch your adapter uses, as not all CD009 adapters use the same clutch. If you're not sure, pleae reach out to us or your adapter's manufacturer.

This billet aluminum adapter plate reuses your factory 4 speed auto 1GZ bellhousing (1997-2004). It will require you to cut off the CD009 bellhousing, which gives MUCH more room to work with in most chassis. Alignment of the input shaft becomes dependent on this plate and not the quality of the bell housing cut, so worry not! This isn't like other kits out there. 

2005-2017 bellhousings will not fit with this adapter. Although the GR-to-CD009 adapter plate we offer would bolt up, the thickness spacing is still wrong
