I just got my CM stage III clutch and fidanza flywheel installed today. I love it. The revs don't drop too fast, but I can shift gears as fast as I want to and it just pinpoints the rpms. Shifting is so much easier.

EXEDY DOES NOT MAKE STAGE clutches....

they make an organic, cerametalic and a hypersingle.....

no light flywheel will do nothing to replace gearing!!

correct. i barely noticed a difference with my fidanza. the motor revs a hair quicker, and revs fall a bit quicker between shifts.

EXEDY DOES NOT OFFER STAGES!!!!!!!!! I know i deal directly with them....

organic
cerametalic
hypersingle....

only availible for the honda....

all are more than reasonable for daily driving....in fact i daily drive with the hypersingle!!!!

go to any other site than nope and you WILL NOT FIND STAGES LISTED per exedy!!!

That's just Nopi translating english into ricer so you can understand it.

I feel that lightweight flywheels are a good purchase. Stage XXX clutches are a waste of money IMO. You're running a stock engine. What do you need with an aftermarket clutch that's going to wear out faster than your stock one? It's a waste of money, and will only increase the driveline shock, making other parts fail sooner.
