the clutch will be the same as long as the Si tranny you have is an 88 as well.

Release bearing is same bet 88DX and a 91Si = P.N. 22810-PL3-005

for the plate and disc, maybe you can use them as well. i don't have OE part numbers. maybe you can slide the disc at least on the main drive shaft to see if the splines match and cross check the overall diameter of both then compare.

i ve been reading, and im confused now. my car is an 88 dx with all 88 stuff in it, my new tranny is a 91, so do i need to get a 91 flywheel too? it says the clutch for 91 is bigger and so is the flywheel. so my 88 flywheel is gonna be too small for my 91 clutch and tranny? Help me out guys

yeah, thats correct. youll need the 90-91 flywheel and clutch to work with the 91 tranny.

bigger flywheel isnt hard to find. i could ship you one, ive somehow accumulated a lot of them i could ship.
