Clutch/Flywheel Combo

[Ralph]

Well after last nights out and about I came to realize that my clutch is past its prime and time for a upgrade. I didnt want to change it until I upgraded the all the good stuff but my car is slipping after 7ish lbs of boost. I am leaning towards the ACT Street/Strip Clutch kit rated at 372 ft. lb which is about where I expect to be more or less in a lil while. Price $365+/-.

Though my motor came in immaculant condition with 122xxx kilometers, I am figuring to swap out the flywheel while the transmission is apart to kill two birds with one stone. So Im looking for a flywheel option to best suit my setup/goals.I am shooting for a GT2871R .64 setup with all the bolt on goodness tuned to perfection. I was following a thread somewhere discussing the differences between using a aluminumn vs a chromoly(sp) wheel and apparently the chromoly wheel wins hands down. So it leaves me (budget minded) with 3 options:

CUSCO light weight (10.56lbs) chromoly flywheel$435+/-

TODA chromoly lightweight flywheel 10.56lbs$450+/-

JUN Ultra lightweight Chromoly flywheel 11lbs(roughly)$450+/-

Looking for any opinions/suggestions on any of these flywheels.

Also, I just ran across the Exedy hyper single plate clutch kit for S13/S14 SR20DET. Kit is rated to hold for 500hp application and includeS lightened flywheel. Any opinions on this setup as well?

Off topic a bit, but I've got a clutch for sale if you want.

Brand new ACT streep/strip full face disc, and a slightly used (<10K miles) pressure plate. Email me if you're interested, I'll let it go real cheap.

Ralph, I've got the Toda Fly in my car along with the ACT Street Clutch. I absolutly love the two, the flywheel takes a bit getting used to but its fun. Fully recomend that set up, dont get a cheaper fly, you get what you pay for.

Exactly and your right, Im not one to be cheap when it comes to my car:D I think Im am going to try out the Exedy hyper single plate clutch kit which should suit my needs just right.

I liked my Fidenza flywheel. As far as clutches go you can't go wrong with ACT in my opinion. SPEC is junk, but I'm sure you already knew that.

The nice thing about the Fidenza (as opposed to the JUN) flywheel is that it is SFI approved.

Just another thing to consider.
