When I did my clutch a while back I went to Bearing man and bought a bearing and then pressed the old one out of the housing and pressed the new one in......still going well. The bearing a SKF one cost about R70.
Cheers

Hey Powder, not familiar with the SR20 release bearing, if it similar to the ca one then it is possible........I am sure veecee will know...he is an ex sr20 owner/builder.

i will also check the OD of my thrust bearing (CA though)...

OD CA thrust bearing = 75mm
ID CA thrust bearing = 45mm

Per my measurements...it was cold, so the bearing, my eye balls or the vernier could have been smaller than usual...

it was cold, so your balls were smaller than usual?

I have confirmation, YES the CA bearing does fit in the SR box, tested it while doing the swop, dang SR box didn't come with one so had to use the CA's one. Luckily it fit... ha ha ha, there is another thingy I had to use from the CA box as well though.
