So 34.5-33.3 = 1.2, so if the spacer is originally 3mm, it should be reduced to 1.8, cool... BUT!

My clutch hub to basket spacer measures at 2.5mm?? Not the 2.8 or 3.0 quoted... where might this have come from? I'm going to surface grind my spacer to 1.8mm at work tomorrow and see where I end up .
I can't argue with your math but I have done this conversion and it works.... even with my Rekluse (which BTW didn't come with the correct spacer I needed) it is possible that the thrust thickness isn't a tight tolerance??? My Suzuki washer I got wasn't 2.0mm either. I think the point that we are modifying and with this info there is a baseline, you'll get it and you'll probably like it
