Alright my clutch blew and im getting a new one. My budget is 300 dollars and I came across this

Anyone have any insight on Prolite flywheels? I always wanted a lighter flywheel. My motor is pretty much stock and I plan on getting a few more bolt on stuff

Thanks for any info guys

Do this combo instead that one. I can vouch for them. These are exactly what I have and I love them.

Also did having a lighter flywheel make a noticable difference on accelerating?

Looks good sorry to hear about the transmission. Do you guys know any place to buy a full 5 speed conversion or are most of you just buying piece by piece.
