Default RPS Clutch and Flywheel installed...

Got the 6 puck clutch and lightened flywheel installed...first impression is that its a little stiffer then stock to push in the pedal. The response is quicker and the pedal barely has to be pushed to shift gears. The flywheel revs up much faster then stock and along with my KJR lightened pulley the car drives quick and tight. I have about 500 miles till break in is finished then I will really test it out...but for 949.00 for both clutch and flywheel shipped out great setup...

Nice, am going to go with the 6 puck or the other one as my next mod instead of the JWT combo which I was originally thinking.

How is the RPS flywheel? Any noise? other have complained about a "cement mixer" sound when suing the JWT flywheel? What has your experience been?

Thanks

I am looking at a new clutch and flywheel to hold more Torque (as my stock clutch has a hard time with 472 ft-lbs). Looking at RPS web site they have three different styles of clutches for Nissan - Sport Series, Max Series and Carbon Series, which one did you get? Have you noticed any loss in Torque from the lighter flywheel? Where did you buy your clutch? Any other brands you looked at?

No loss in torque...the carbon carbon is still in development...i got the max series 6 puck...i purchased mine through mvp motorsports cause they were local and matched the price of intense motorsports...but hopup racing has it for the same price too
