The ST182 transmission is a S53 which is not the same as the ST185 stransmission (E151F)
To make the S53 mork with the 3S-GTE you will need the flywheel from a 3S-GTE and the clutch disc from a 5S-FE.

thanks for the answer fussellbug. but why do i need to use a clutch from 5S-FE?

The spline is much bigger on the "E" series trannies vs the "S" series. So the clutch disc won't interchange. If you install the st185 clutch kit the s53 trans spline will be spinning around like a hot dog in a hallway. You can buy a 3sgte pressure plate and 5s clutch disc that would work. Or talk to doc tweak he carries competition clutches for swaps.

You cant install the 5s kit because the pressure plate wont bolt onto the 3s flywheel. Forgot to mention that the flywheels aren't the same. You can Call ACT clutch and have them do a custom setup for you. 5s clutch disc 3s pressure plate.

Find out the transmission code that you have for the st182. If its an S53 transmission you cannot just use a clutch kit meant for a gt-four or mr2 turbo. Now you can get fidenza flywheels for the enigne you have. Just order a clutch kit for a st182 problem solved. Just realized st182 came standard with a 3sge.
