too lazy to edit sorry foro the doubble post. flywheels would tkae a bit longer BUT u can get them from rare trick. i reccomend staying away from lightweight flywheels on ca and jsut resurface your OEM one.

i bought one on ebay its a 6 puck clutch its a XTD i think. I bought one for the Ka24E rated 360 lbs/torque.

150 US with everything you need to install it but dont use the release bearing that come with the kit , some people said they didnt last 4000 miles

for the flywheel i cannot tell you just do what slideways replied.

good luck

did the KA clutch need modification? I've tried one here in the UK and the bolt spacing and location pins were totally different so didn't fit on the flywheel

you need to cut one aligment pin on the flywheel and the cover fit.. you also need to enlarge a litlle each hole for bolting the pressure plate cuz there not perfectly aligned... except of that , everything is fitting well

sounds like the same situation, I was told you could just remove dowel pins and it would bolt on so we shipped one over to test, alright for DIY but no use to sell, cheers for that
