Default Clutch Throwout Bearing Question

Hey everybody, I just got my z1 mild performance clutch/flywheel kit a few days ago and came with a genuine koyo throwout bearing. I plan on swapping a CD009 transmission into my 03 Z within the next couple of months. I plan on getting my CD009 from CZP and they told me that the CD009 comes with an oem throwout bearing as well. So I'm a little hazy now. I'm pretty sure the drivetrain only uses one throwout bearing in the clutch system. So will I be left over with an extra TOB? If so, would you guys recommend using the Nissan oem TOB or the Koyo TOB? Or will it even matter at all?

Yes, there's only one TOB in use with our trannys. Call Z1 back and get their take on whether the Koyo TOB is spec'd for use with your clutch/flywheel combo. If so, use it and save the OEM one for the future..

The new factory CD009 will come with everything installed, greased, and all neatly covered with a small prophylactic baggie...ready to install. It comes that way from the factory, its quite nifty actually I have a pic somewhere.

You won't need the extra throwout bearing, just keep it as a spare.
