Yes and no, This is what you want HERE
You will need a new CSC and I highly recommend using the Zspeed CSC sleeve also.

If you resurface the flywheel it will break in faster. Ceramic breaks in pretty fast, Say 300-400 miles you should be good.

My review of the DXD B Stage 5 Ceramic, (prior to break in) so far I havent been able to really get on it ..... I have been through all the gears though.. Huge difference in the clutch grab and holding power.. I get from first to 6th so fast now I unconsciously double clutch 6th gear and laugh at myself because I want MORE.. This clutch is now allowing me to see my full potential in boost and see 18psi on my defi where the nismo would only hold to 15psi.. (Nismo is not meant for TT/Built car IMO)

The stiffness is equal to the NISMO on the left foot..... Nothing much IMO.. Getting in 1st could be a little tricky trying to slip perfectly but it isnt really challenging.... Now for the noise, it is not for the weak or the OEM minded person who wants a super quiet cab.. Louder than NISMO and has the cement mixer noise at low rpm when taking off from that low rpm (could be avoided by a skilled driver)

I must say this thing is worth every penny, bang for buck the best deal on this website!! DXD B Ceramic 6 puck FTMFW!!!

Any additional noise you may be getting is due to the Rigid hub style disk you chose. Without the sprung center the disk will not dampen the input shaft of the trans and since this is where the rattle/cement mixer sound comes from with the LW (Nismo/JWT) flywheels it will be slightly worse with the super light rigid hub disk.

Sooo does it just fall into the gears now? Notice the faster/easier shifts?
I love how it falls into gears so easy and crisp.. It is seriously like day and night.. Its so smooth and shifts perfectly...

I understand the noise is due to MY choice of NON SPRUNG clutch, I didnt want a spring ( I love the noise, it sounds MEAN! ), I do have a lightweight NISMO flywheel I forgot to mention those things...

Received my clutch yesterday with the flywheel and under belly pan. By far one of the best vendors on this site. Great prices and super fast shipping!

Same here. I tried leaving you feedback yesterday with no luck. I think IB is working on the issue.
