RX-8 to use a 9.3" clutch

Mazda now shows the clutch to be:

"Single Dry Plate (236 x 160)"

I don't know what the second number means but the 236 mm translates into 9.3". With 236 as the outer diameter, the 160 might be the inner diameter.

Interestingly, 236mm I believe was the clutch size of the FD RX-7.

It is a good sized clutch for only 159 lb-ft of torque.
