It should come with a pilot bushing.

Is that picture your own or did you just find that on the internet?

If thats your picture the pilot bushing appears to be on the alignment tool...

All you are missing is a flywheel. But yes it is complete. And the pilot bushing goes in the back of your crank to keet your trans. shaft in alignment.

yeah, i just took that picture. i checked the piece thats on the alignment tool, it has no teeth on it... is that how its supposed to come? and i didnt think it would be that small.

Why would it have teeth on it?

And yes, that's what a pilot bushing for a KA/SR looks like. You're good to go.

flywheel i was going to either get resurfaced or just get a brand new one from autozone with core. i read somewhere on here that i can take it to napa and have it resurfaced... but i dont want to waste time having to get a ride down there, i just wanna get the new clutch in and start breaking it in asap.

Yeah what Def said.

I'm not sure why the one guy brought up flywheels but anyways get a new one or resurface the old one. I got mine done at a machine shop and it turned out great.

Scratch it up evenly with some emery paper to help the break in period.

yah you got everything. Just get your old flywheel resurfaced, will be cheaper than getting a new one. You might as well get a pilot bearing puller from kragens or something cuz itll save you the headache if you've never changed one before. Then you still gotta change out the Throw out Bearing...

the throw out bearing is a press fit take it and the fly wheel to the same shop and they can do it all for you. i took mine to them and they had it done within 45 min. cost only 40 bucks too. you can rent the pilot removing toll or i have heard of people putting grease in there and using a punch or something the same size as the input shaft and it'll push it out once you apply force.

Also, since this thread has clearly run its course and the OP's question has been answered (in the first reply, even), I'm :lockd:'ing this.
