Need help with Clutch
So it's time for a new clutch I'm at 102k miles on a stock clutch, and I was looking at the Exedy stage 1 and the McLeod stage one, my question is do you think it's safe to have the flywheel resurfaced? And what all do I need. I know I need a throw out bearing because it has a little chatter, do I also need a new slave cylinder? And what does a shop usually charge to install this? Thanks for all the help guys!

I went with the exedy Mach 400 clutch (stage 1) and it's been great - Brenspeed sells it with the CSC included, which I recommend replacing while you have the trans out. Make sure to follow the break in period, as much as you want to put it through the paces, it will pay dividends once it's properly mated to the flywheel. |
Cool thank you, but why would you want a lighter flywheel? I always thought a heavier flywheel whelk keep up the rpm's up, lighter will drop alot faster. But I see how a lighter flywheel will rev quicker

With normal wear & tear you should be able to resurface the flywheel, but it will just have to be measured to make sure there's enough material to do so. When I did mine, I replaced the flywheel with the exedy steel one just to have something a little lighter in there.

How is the lighter flywheel in daily driving? Everyone seems to say thats the biggest drawback - that it can make stop and go traffic a real PITA
In daily driving the decreased inertia doesn't make much difference, I just engage a little differently so that I get on the gas more. It makes up for it in getting you up to your peak torque really quick (especially with 4.10's) I like the flywheel, but for the money I'd probably just stick with stock if I was doing it over. |
