Make sure the clutch kit contains:Clutch PlatePressure PlatePilot BearingThrow-out Bearingclutch/pp alignment tool..
If the clutch kit contains those parts and you get a flywheel that is all you need.
Also if you can talk your dad into spending a little extra money (like $100 or so) get a lightweight flywheel. It helps with acceleration.
