    98: need new clutch and lightened flywheel

    my clutch is goin to hell in many peices... I need to get it replaced and i wanna go the next step up from stock. While im at it, ive got the money, so i wanna throw in a lightened fly to go with it.

    my uncle is doin the install at his shop so i dont gotta pay labor, where do i get the clutch and fly from?

    how much power to the wheels u think i would get?? and how much more accel would i have?

    thx!

    MWR http://monkeywrenchracing.com/
    but http://www.ultrarev.com/ has $100 off everything in the clutches/driveline section so I'm thinking of picking up the fidanza flywheel for $330.80+s/h and the ACT clutch HDSS for 195.15+s/h I'm checking right now with MWR on how much they'll price match it. So I'll update later. Good luck

    you might as well go stage 2, it's not that much more expensive if any. i have a stage 1 and it'd be nice if it grabbed a lil quicker

    I believe MWR will price match.

    I have the Fidanza flywheel and ACT clutch (heavy duty pressure plate & organic disc)..no complaints. You won't be 'faster', really, but shifting is much more fun..

    I was looking at the HDSS or HDR4. But what's the difference between an HD and XT. It seems like XT seems more for track? which would you recommend? which does everyone have?

    UltraRev.com has emailed me back

    "You have to call us for special price of $359, toll free 1-877-858-7272

    Due to Fidanza's new policy we cannot advertise lower then msrp.

    We have this flywheel in stock ready to ship.

    Thanks,

    Isn't the Fidanza flywheel too light weight? 8.5lb is pretty light considering the stock flywheel is 16lb. Does anyone actually have one? If so I would like to hear how drivable the car is with it.

    Well I did it :) Fidanza Flywheel and ACT clutch. But I Got it all back togather and my clutch wont fully disengage now. I dont think the slave cylender is pushing the throwout bearing arm and guide far enough to completely release teh clutch disc. It does release it a bit just not completely. So I'm going to flush the brake fluid tonight and replace it too see if that helps since the fuild is almost black containing way to much water but if that does not work I might have to look into a hydralic clutch master and slave cylender that can handle the new XT pressure plate since obviously it needs to be moved a little more then the stock one.
