New Clutch w/ Flywheel ???

Montanasvt · January 24th, 2008, 12:52 AM

I think i decided to get gears, drive shaft, and a flywheel with my tax return... my question is, would it be worth putting a clutch in while im putting the flywheel in...my clutch is fine...i wouldn't have the money to do this, but im just wondering if it would be better to wait till i did have it and do it all at once...it would come out a lil cheaper that way...

yes it would prob be cheaper and not a bad idea. but if your clutch is good i wouldnt worry about it.. and changing clutches is a never ending thing so its not gonna matter if you change it now or later it will have to been done sooner or later.

go ahead and do it.... cuz you will regret not doing it down the road when your clutch goes out and you have to pull your tranny again... im in the same situation... only my car already has the transmission out and im not able to drive it until i get the cash for a new clutch.. just be patient and wait on the clutch, you wont regret it..

yes, that stocker is only going to last so long, i blew mine very easily in my 99.

get a spec stage 3, ive put 2's in 2 99/01's, and both of them did not hold the bolt on power very long, replaced them with 3's, and problem solved.

what all did you have done to it for it to blow a stage 2???

KingChronic · January 24th, 2008, 01:52 PM

they were just bolt on 99/01's. nothing serious. anything more than a slight bolt on GT, and the spec 2 isnt enough clutch. and people can say what they want, but there is no such thing as too much clutch, you want it to grab.

what kind of hp would a lightweight flywheel free up if im already around 280-290 rwhp

KingChronic · January 24th, 2008, 09:19 PM

maybe 5-10, but the problem is launching at the track your going to bog down more. i recommend staying with a steel FW.
