so ive been searching about using ka pilot bushing and throw out bearing to sr and been finding some mixed answers, some guys are saying that it wont work like the sr flywheel is diff from ka but some said that it would work since ka and sr tranny is almost the same so i made a thread about this and would like to know if somebody is using a ka pilot bushing and throw out bearing for sr?

yes, it will work, they're the same

the pilot bearing goes into the crankshaft not the flywheel so that wasn't a very knowledgeable reply....

it'll work, make sure you saturate it with oil before installing it aka take the bearing between your thumb and your pointer, plug one side with your thumb and fill it like a cup with motor oil. take your index finger and squish the oil till you see it oozing through the pores of the pilot bearing, then install
