Ok so I'm going to be getting more in my tax returns than anticipated and Im putting it towards my car (best place right?). I'm looking at 3 options to spend it on. To note I have ZZP S3, CAI, DP, Coilovers. I will also be getting zzp's long tube headers, catback exhaust and LS4 throttle body at that time. So now I'm looking at 3 options to drop cash on:

Option 1: South Bend Stage 3 clutch and Fidanza Aluminum Flywheel

Option 2: Zzp's stage 2 Cams

Option 3: Getting my Heads Ported

Now each have there positives and I'm asking the great CSS.net if it were you choice, what would you select? And another side note is that I plan on going TVS hopefully by the fall.

 

Id go clutch, seems like some guys upgrade that before they go with more power.

 

That's what I was leaning towards. Also the cheapest option.

 

save your $$ and get the GMPP clutch. Youl be able to get even more stuff. lol.

seriously. GMPP is like 275 with the TOB and it holds just about anything you can throw at it.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^This I have the GMPP Clutch and it is alright amazing and I would go ported head before cams since you don't have any other mods done to rev higher which cams moves your powerband up in the rpms along with other things, but go head first lol

 

I'd have to 3rd the motion of GMPP clutch. Holds my TVS power no problem. Stage 2 cams are better suited if you are running a TVS and spinnig the motor up IMO. Stage 1 would be the way to go with the M62 and conservative rev limiter. Ported head is always a great upgrade no matter what way you look at it.

The stock clutch holds well as long as it isn't abused and isn't launched on slicks or drag radials much. But if you like to hit the track, GMPP clutch no question.

 

Gmpp cluth and custom tune im assuming ur running the can zzp tune get a custom one for more power

 

Gmpp clutch.. brand new stock flywheel and arp bolts... And upgraded TOB w adjustable clutch rod... And TTR trans mounts

 

get the gmpp clutch its cheaper and it will hold just fine for what you will make

 

Well looks like I'm going to go with the GMPP clutch then! Never really even thought of the GMPP when shopping around for them. I'm thinking go with that and port the heads, then get the flywheel a little later.

Blue, being on the stock clutch is why I haven't been to the track yet or really even launched in the year and a half I've owned this car, but that will change this summer I plan on living there! Thanks for the insight about the cams as well, dont think that's the direction ill go but i was looking at stage 2 as I want to move on to tvs in the future.

Vander I'm definitely getting a custom tune once I get these round of mods put on. This canned tune is by far not the greatest.

 

Just make sure u get all the extra for the gmpp, like cluth pipe and im not sure if they was anything else but u can see it when u look on ced website to buy it

 

I dident know that the lsj had heads I thought it had just one head

 

gmpp clutch, ported head and cams. done

 

I went on CED last night and I think there was only the clutch pipe that was extra. I was just about to ask if it was needed when I came on here.

 

There is only one head, dunno why I keep putting an -s at the end. Probably just something I'm used to saying from working on other cars.

 

Eventually ha! I wish I could get them all now. Throw a TVS on top of that and ill be a happy camper.

 

I vote cams/valve springs & gmpp clutch.

 

GMPP clutch and hit up lsjion on here for a port and polish. Great work at a low price

 

Gmpp clutch and ported head
