uhhh what chassis is this in?

You need a push style if its going in a 240, using an RB20 or RB25 Tranny.

The AWD RB25's used Pull Type

You just need the RWD tranny and a 2WD clutch

yeah it must be, i was just told it was for my rb25 rwd, its a twin plate orc, and everything bolts ups, it just wont clear the pivot ball leading me to it being a pull

does the PP have the TOB connected to it? are the PP finger bowing Outward > or inward <.

If the fingers bow outward then its a push type and you can not use it as a pull

see thats what i dont get, the fingers are outward and no tob is connected or looks like it could be, i thought it was push all along but someone told me today that it is a pull, but idk heres a pic

that looks like a push type

Normally Pull types look like this
HKS LA Twin Plate Clutch Kit Nissan (http://www.rhdjapan.com/hks-la-twin-plate-clutch-kit-nissan-57393)

EDIT: Ive also seen that some big clutch kits require a conversion kit for the TOB and Sleeve system to make it work

i didn i bought a motor and tranny separately and it did not come with a clutch, this clutch was bought on one of the other forums and was told it was for a 25, just emailed him couple days ago to see what exactly is the story on it

o dam....well i read that u bought a tranny......the tranny should have a stamped id such as mine did ...(example) RB71c #1 . and thats rb20 tranny. check your id out online fairly easy to find on google...ect... and ull find out what tranny u bought. now if u have a correct tranny then your clutch setup must be wrong because there shouldnt be any clearance issue with your fork, it should slide rite in as mine did when i replace my clutch and flywheel like a month ago... talk to the guy you bought you clutch from and get your money back if its not the correct item he said to have sold you. looks expensive....

i do have the proper tob for it, i referenced it on the orc site, cause its an orc twin plate. however even with the tob out the clutch fork hits the pressure plate, i have another thread that explains a little better my situation i only created this one to see if there was a way from push to pull, because i was temporarily under the assumption my clutch was possibly a pull type
