This month I am going to have quite a bit of disposable income... Around 1500 or so I'm thinking... I need a clutch/flywheel... What should i get? I'm not wanting to spend over 600 for the both combined though. I plan on putting down a lot more torque once April/may hits with some more disposable income. so i want a clutch that lasts

I was looking at ky stage one.. 300tq rating for 300 through turbo tech. otherwise I was also looking at exedy stage 2 but I've heard those are rated at 275tq for about 50 dollars more... I plan on building the car up for more boost and again, i do not want to replace the clutch again if I don't have to... is it really necessary to get a lightweight flywheel or can i get away with stock?

Id do zzp. Ive heard good things as well. If ur gona build eventaully, mite as well save up some more cash and get a higher stage 3 or 4. Make sure ur covered and dont have to wory about clutch issues. I hear the stock flywheels are fine just resurface but ive had a aluminum one on my z and i love how fast the rmps go down so id get one of those too. lol

so i'm not sure if i found the once in a lifetime price for these or what... but supertech 78# valve springs through ZZP are $350... Supertech - Supertech 78lb Valve Spring Kit #04-02-01084

looked at them through THMotorsports (where you can buy them individually).. and here they have them for $8.15 a piece, same specs... Supertech Valve Springs CHEVROLET CAVALIER BASE 2002 - 2005 2.2 SPR-TS1015-EC

130 and some change for all of the springs...

along with that, the 16 titanium retainers are another 16x.xx, so they equal about 60 dollars less than what zzp is selling for all together...
