Fidanza clutch and flywheel dealer

I am trying to find a dealer for a Fidanza clutch, I can find the flywheel at Turbo Tech Racing, but I can't find the clutch kit. If anyone knows, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Regards,

Ryan

Fidanza does not make a clutch kit for the cobalt. If they did we would carry it.

SPEC is a very name brand many choose. Very value based and great performance.

They list it on their site, part number 391051 - 391051 for their two.one to five.four respectively. I emailed them, waiting for an email back on Monday.

Direct link to the PDF: http://www.fidanza.com/Files/clutchappguide.pdf

Just thought I would follow up, this is the email I received back from Fidanza:

Hey Ryan,


Thanks for contacting Fidanza. The clutches have not been released yet for this application. We currently don't have any ETA on when these will be released.


Thank You,


Brad Bojc
Regards,

Ryan

IMO I would go with SPEC and not Fidanza on the clutch. Fidanza makes good flywheels, but SPEC is much better for the clutch.

I have to disagree with you there slightly, Fidanza makes amazing flywheels and their make great clutches but SPEC better for clutches? Maybe on some applications but overall SPEC is such a hit and miss with installation, support, quality, etc. I think I would sooner go with Exedy from you guys before I go with SPEC. Just my thoughts though.

Regards,

Ryan

You can go with SPEC, they are a very popular brand, I just find them to be a hit and miss application. I personally like Exedy more then SPEC but if you already have the flywheel, might want to either sell it or check if you can purchase just the clutch and no the flywheel from Exedy.

Or you can just go with SPEC.

Regards,

Ryan

Ryan, we never stated Fidanza flywheels were bad, please re read. We dont like Fidanza's Clutch line. They dont offer hardly any sport compact applications and IMO SPEC VS Fidanza on clutch kits only, SPEC is better.

If you can afford it go with the EXEDY Hyper singe, it does not have any issues either and has had great results.

If you have the flywheel and want something comparable to the Exedy, the closest thing in the SPEC line (that works with the Fidanza flywheel) is the SPEC Stage 3+

Oh no, I don't mean to make it sound like you are downing Fidanza flywheels! Also, it does hurt that they don't make much for the sport compact market and focus more on front/mid engine rear wheel drive or all wheel drive applications. I think I am going to be going with the EXEDY Hyper Single and with all of the points I have from you guys, I am hoping to have a bit of a discount! Do you or have you ever had a sale on EXEDY clutches? Thanks!

Regards,

Ryan
