i love my exedy stage 1 clutch with my act prolite flywheel great grabbing clutch with a lil stiffer than stock clutch pressure, the only con to it is the throwout bearing, i reccomend using an oem one. As for the flywheel i couldnt be happier, i noticed a big difference with my rpms picking up and vtec felt like it pulled way harder, maybe it was just cuz the rpms started climbing faster.

 

that would be the exedy organic clutch right??

so i can use a stock release/throwout bearing with a exedy organic and a fidanza flywheel??

There's nothing wrong with it. You asked if you can use an OEM bearing, and the answer is yes. No one said that the bearing that comes with the Exedy clutch is inferior. Since Exedy makes the OEM clutch components, it's likely the new clutch will have the exact same throwout bearing as stock anyway.

 

what do you guys think about act vs exeddy?

isnt act better for performance?

 

COMPETITION CLUTCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

i think im going with...

exedy stg1 clutch kit
fidanza flywheel 8lb

 

Just installed exedy stage1 and fidanza 8lb lightweight flywheel last monday, car pulls way harder...go with exedy bro.

 

act = more cash!!

exedy and ACT looks like the same quality ??

correct me if im wrong !!!

 

I would go with Exedy over ACT. Exedy is better quality from my experience. And Stage 1 is plenty for the mods you have, it'll be a good setup.
