R397N is listed as fitting all 4WD L'series, and may fit Brumby I'm not sure. Go to either Clutch Industries or Exedys website for online cataldog.
Local brake n clutch shops quoted me around the $300 - $400 mark for this!
1 Clam = $1 AUS.
I think its easy enough to do:)
Yes there are some good deals to be had with online shopping!!

What about if you have a 7 inch clutch, and they have provided a 8 inch, or vice versa?

Looks like NOS - that packaging looks pretty old compared to the new kit I got recently.

The EA81 and EA82 kits are not interchangeable without modifying the EA81 flywheel, but this is only done for a 5 speed conversion from what I've read.

I got a CI kit for the EJ22 from my local for ~$260, I was pretty happy with that, but not at the same time...

Cheers
