Default Clutch Install HAULTED. PP Doesnt Line Up with Flywheel Pins. WTF Do I Do?

So I felt like putting my clutch and flywheel on mycar this morning. Long story short the PP 3 holes to fit over the flywheel pins dont line up. One will go and then the other 2 are offset about 3/16-1/4", both in different directions so its the closest I can get it

Ive turned it every way possible, not ever gonna fit. Have absolutely no idea what to do myself except grind away and make the holes in the pressure plate a giid bit larger and extend the slots

I dont think thats a great idea though and would probably through **** off

This is all for an 88 Crx Si, D16a6, Clutch Specialties 6puck unsprung

If you are ABSOLUTELY SURE you have the correct pressure plate, you can remove two of the pins that dont line up. They actually dont have anything to do with your plate fastening to the flywheel, but merely aid you in installation. Most of the time, they are broken off when you have the flywheel surfaced anyway. Ive never had a problem with removing them. But be absolutely sure you have the correct clutch/pressure plate for your application!

Well, that's not so bad.. At least you know it's not the correct setup for your application. It would have had you scratching your head if you had bolted everything up and couldnt get the tranny to slide into place..
