Ok, I'm changing my clutch and was wondering if I should upgrade my flywheel while I was at it. I've heard multible story's about stock is better but I've also seen pics of the stock flywheel flying apart. I just use my car on the weekends but I drive it pretty hard. I guess I'm asking is it worth it to upgrade and if so which one did you go with?

Thanks!

if you are doing the clutch it doesn't hurt....... ACT has some nice ones!

I asked a similar question in the Performance section - https://www.nopistons.com/forums/ind...howtopic=27219

Thanks for the info Sinful7.

My question now is, Do I need an auto tranny counterweight if I get the ACT Streetlite?

I've got the ACT Street/Strip clutch waiting to go in if that makes a difference.

Unfortunatly, i have no experience with the ACT unit, it seems no one else does either. If i had to venture a guess, I would say yes, you need the counterweight. I am under the assumption that it is necessary to dampen output shaft vibration.

i'm not sure you can call ACT @ http://www.advancedclutch.com though



i'm pretty sure the price includes everything you need

you need the auto counterweight with any light weight flywheel.

I have the SR motorsports one, it's great

Sent ACT an e-mail to make sure. Now I'm just waiting on a reply. I also asked if it came with their flywheel or if it had to be purchased separtly. I'll post their reply soon!

AgentSpeed 10-17-2003 04:46 PM

The reply I got from ACT: (I guess it's needed - ~$375 is still a real good price IMHO)



Thank you for purchasing our product and considering our new ACT flywheel we do offer the counter weight but it is a separate part # and price from the flywheel. The part number is (CW01- $156.00). We are very excited to be able to offer these complete kits and know you will be very pleased with the results, if you have any more questions please feel free to e-mail or call!

Thanks Again and Safe Driving.
