Depends on what sort of work you are doing but Exedy for sure, spend a few extra bucks and get heavy duty, even for normal type use. If you want bullet proof go for the Safari Tuff Clutch and it'll probably last you forever.

Temps

I am assuming you have a patrol diesel (because of the section you have posted in), Toyota and Nissan diesel can take vastly different temperatures before other adverse consequences emerge. 550 Degrees Celsius is approx 1000 deg Fahrenheit and 550 degrees Fahrenheit is around 300 Celsius not much ...

Technically the body has no numbers so the compliance plates can be removed and fitted to another body with no effect to the roadworthiness, wagon to wagon, wagon to cab chassis is a different story, doing this to your vehicle will need engineering, reclassification and blueslip.

The major difference is the overbraid that protects the inner core, this overbraid also adds strength and abrasion resistence and excludes dirt, mud etc from entering the core and doing further damage. Does that answer your question??
