Advice? Clutch @ Fly Wheel Selection

Hey Guys

Hunting around for a Heavy Duty Clutch for a D16. After something that is going to take around 200 - 250 wkw. Been Looking at ACT Clutchs XACT Street lite & Prolite fly wheel & Fidanza Fly Wheels. does anyone have any experience with these products? any pros and cons... also other feedback such as life? driveability ? Good for specific power brackets etc? This wont be going on a Full on race car, will be a street car but not daily driven. Also Do any traders out there stock these products or anyone know who does?

That is a link to a few clutchs i have been looking at, anyone have any recommendations to what would be best to suit my situation

Think thats about it for the moment, welcome all feedback and suggestions :)

Thanks in advance

Seriously....

Don't mess with Australian brands. For Price and Range go to the US.

Me. I just bought:

Competition Clutch kit and Flywheel
1900 lb pressure plate
6 puck ceramic sprung center disc
Steel flywheel 3.8kgs

$835 AUD delivered to my door.
3 days delivery time.

I think you mean & not @

I have used competition clutch and clutchmaster. I say the clutchmaster and the flywheel. Also my friend Norris races for them full time!

the competition clutch felt stock to me. I have used all the different clutches as well, from stage 1-4 on both. Clutchmastwer 100%

I just bought a Exedy Lightweight Flywheel from eBay:-

$290 inc. postage & handling The exedy ones are better than Fidanza's because the Fidanza ones are made of aluminium.

i got an exedy clutch and fidanza flywheel package for a killer price, all good so far car revs heaps better now and its really fun to drive and rev match etc.

you might want a better clutch though but there are stafe 1,2,3,4 packages you can look at. i suggest get from USA as well, most probable will be cheaper.

America seems to have different spec clutches though. They only have racing stage 1-4. Like what's the equivilent of the Exedy Australian Sports Tuff clutch? It's quite confusing ....

i agree, finding it hard to make sense of some of the terms and specs they use

It does not mater what the equivalant is.

You guys need to ask questions:

Send the maufactures emails with the specs of your car:

Car and Motor
Use: street only, street/drag, drag only.
Daily driver / Weekend driver
Power and Torque output

They have the answers. They will recomend a setup for your needs. :thumbsup:

Why is that ?

i've found the exedy stuff to be superior to the us brands. Most us brands promise alot but fail to deliver. The fact that they are across the pond makes it harder again when there are defects in manufacturing.
Just my experience
