If you are getting a new clutch, you may as well get a lightened flywheel also. Saves time and money on labor

HEY! Read my 5th gen clutch install article. It details the install, and lists contact, part # info, and impressions of the Exedy OEM replacememnt clutch that cost me a paltry 96.50 out the door w/ throw out bearing, and adjustment tool. Good luck. ps- exedy/daikin manufacture the OEM equipment clutches, so any doubts you may have about the quality of the unit should be assuaded by that, and the fact that the cluch I'm on now has 30k miles on it, and 5 or so track days. And, yes, an 8lbs flywheel should go in at the same time, if you care.

Get an OEM one of ebay.com They are made by Exedy and are just OEM spec.

prelude1987 why the lightened flywheel? I was thinking of getting one when I get the Exedy OEM clutch and thinking of the pros/cons and any brands.

well, considering i'm not a hardcore racer and dont plan on taking my baby to the track till after i graduate college and start doing some internal work or some boost, i'm gonna stay away from the racing clutch anyhow, but i what i was asking, was that lightened flywheel gonna be for racing as well, or would it actually help my car?
