I would never recommend putting a cheap flywheel in your car. They can cause alot of damage if they decide to break inside your tranny. Those flywheels at 8000 RPMs are a deadly weapon. I have heard that they have shot out and actually went through the fire wall into the cab of the car. I just dont think that its worth it. Spend a little more and get something that has been proven. Good Lcuk

6 puck clutch and a stage 3 pressure plate..?? That's gonna suck for the street..My car has 4 puck clutch and a stage 2 pressure plate and its horrible for the street..My calf is huge though..But I get alot of chatter and I think the 4 puck is starting to eat the tranny..I cant even imagine what a 6 puck would feel like on the street..

I got a stage 3 XTD kit with an 8 lb fidanza flywheel. Works great. I get use to stuff pretty easily some people say its pretty hard to engage. I dont think so just takes some getting use to. It engages pretty hard and solid. For the price no complaints. Good on my daily driven H22 Crx

I bought a F1 RACING Stage 3 Clutch Kit & F1 RACING 9.75 lbs X-LITE Lightweight Chromoly Flywheel... i got it off ebay for like 300 bucks...

I haven't put it in yet, but it should be in on friday.... my experience with the seller, gripforce, was great... I talked with them before i bought it and they said they use Competition Clutch disks and they get their flywheels from like Fidanza or some other brand name ... i cant remember....

They ship really fast and i originally ordered a 90-91 kit cause I just bought an XSI swap... Turns out i got a YS1 large spline tranny with the swap so i needed a 92-93 gsr disk

Anyways, they rushed me out the disk and credited me back all in three days...

So far, they get a

When i get the clutch in, i see how it goes
