I made contact with NPC in Brisbane and they supplied a steel flywheel allowing a bigger friction/pressure plate to be used.
If your not keen to go down the steel flywheel path, I'm sure they'll have a clutch that will do the job with the std flywheel.
I had to re-sleeve the std Hilux slave cyl down to 11/16" (17mm) to get suitable travel to provide smoother gear changes.

I've contacted that mob twice now looking for bits for my ute and no response. Too hard apparently.
