new clutch
new clutch
so ive noticed that my clutch is starting to slip so im gonna buy an aftermarket clutch and flywheel. is the spec stage 2 clutch and fidanza flywheel a good setup? also if i bring the parts to a transmission shop what else will i need?
Get the SPEC Stage 2+
Many get the normal 2 and have issues. The ones that get the 2+ never complain.
You dont want to pay for a clutch job twice, do it right the first time
Also I would stick with the SPEC on SPEC, I wouldnt get a Fidanza flywheel, I would keep similar brands together.

lighter weight, in theory it will free up more power. i dont think its needed on a street driven car.
what are your future plans for power??? i hear guys have pretty good luck with the centerforce dfx clutch kit, would save you around $250 over the spec stuff. if you want to spend that kinda money, id go a little more and buy an exedy hyper single, itll take whatever you can throw at it pretty much. i know this sounds like im trying to steer you away from spec. ive never owned a spec clutch, but from the cars ive driven with spec clutches i cant say i want on. they do hold the power, but every one ive driven suffers from random release heights. one time the pedal is high, the next time its low. just something that really annoys me.
whatever you get, dont forget to replace the slave cylender.

well i just got my car back from the transmission shop and everything is installed. the ride home was kinda fun cuz the clutch is not broken yet so i barely hav to move my foot for it to catch. i stalled it twice but i got the hang of it now. thanks for hookin me up with everything TTR
PM us when you are ready to get a 3+ and flywheel, we will get you a discount.
i almost forgot to ask this. i was planning on driving home to nashville for the weekend from college in chattanooga. its about 150-200 miles on interstate. will it be alright to make this trip even though my clutch isnt broken in yet?
