5 speed Exedy Twin plate clutch in a 6 speed

Who is running a 5 speed Exedy Twin plate in a 6 speed box?

Any problems?

What differs between the 5 and 6 speed version of this clutch?

Thanks

I ran one for a while in a 6 speed box and no problems at all Harry and I think the clutch for the 6 speed maybe slightly larger but not certain.

Not sure but I think operating mechanism is different, the 6 speed STi one is a pull type and the 5 speed is a push type. I might be wrong but worth checking as will be difficult to get round.

Defo not the case Diccy, the only twin plate that changes the operating mechanism from a pull to push type is the os giken, the exedy twin 5 or 6 speed is a pull type clutch.
