Hi guys I just wanted some opinion or advice on what sort of a clutch i should be heading for. I've got light mods on the car such as a custom Sri, fujitsubo exhaust, vafcII, and a short shifter. I've also recently just purchased a comptech lightweight flywheel off wuisim that needs to be mated to a k24 clutch. advice please? and would anyone know where i can get my hand on one because the cheapest I've found for the sports tuff is $550
Btw I'm in Melbourne Thanks guys

Hi,

I have the comptech clutch (also from wu) and have it paired with an exedy sports tuff clutch. It is great. You will love the difference the flywheel makes.

you can see the part number on this photo.

I'm in Perth so everything is expensive to get here. $550 sounds good to me.

Go heavy duty. I went OEM strength and regretted not getting heavy duty, pedal feel is extremely light.

The Mechanic finished with my car today and changed the gear oils as well. Car runs like brand new no joke LOL its smooth as shittttttttt. But the clutch seems very soft! is it just how my mechanic done it or like are they all very soft to push down?

it will firm up after a little while. It is still lighter than the stock one though. You'll get used to it.

Just be careful not to hard shift for the first 500km's or so. Let it run in propoerly. I'm pretty sure I kept mine below 5000rpm for that period of time.
