no they do not come with the throwout bearing like some jwt clutchs...
the 3 pins you must be reffering to are used to align the clutch with the flywheel before you actual bolt it up to the flywheel...

We didn't know if this would effect anything so we went ahead and replaced it.
it could have been the one for the Z32 if you got it a while ago...
the pins are used simply to align the clutch with the flywheel before bolting it in... they stay in place and are held in by the clutch cover...

Just received my clutch and flywheel today. It came with 3 pins, The instructions say to use one pin to line up the flywheel with the crank so that the timing will not be off. The instructions say nothing about the other 2 pins. Soooooo?????

So the one pin that goes in the crank side of the flywheel is a standard pin that is on the crank from the factory. The three pins that come with the JWT kit are the pins that line up the clutch to the flywheel and are left in permenently. Right?

I was getting things set up for my install in the morning and had one last question. I ordered the 8 bolts that hold the flywheel to the crank but what about the clutch to flywheel bolts. Do you re-use the stock ones?

I think I'm stuck. I have the Tilton clutch in now, which looks like it uses 6 long bolts with nuts to hold the clutch to the flywheel. The stock clutch looks like it uses about 9 short bolts. Performance gave me back all my old clutch parts but NO bolts, and of course JWT does not supply any bolts. When I ordered my JWT combo from Performance, I told them I needed to replace my tilton and needed everything to do so. I think the clutch bolts were overlooked. And I have an appointment tuesday morning. I would bet that the local dealer won't have them in stock either.
