Default help deciding on clutch /fly..

Tired of the stock clutch and fly , looking to get new combo.
Did searching around for a while but still cant make up my mind.
A little help here .
Looking to get something smoother and streetable .
Im running all the way NA ... and rarely tracking my car ...want something
little bit better than stock.. any suggestion ??
ACT combo , JWT combo or the exedy clutch with fly....
i guess im more on ACT side since the response on act is all positive ...
but the question is the act has few combos which is the right to go with the power i have here ... not looking for those high power crazy setup...just streetable and trackable also easy to drive ...so which combo in ACT would suit my need ??
thx for help..

i have the JWT combo. it's really streetable. More so than stock IMO. Grabs harder, revs fast, feels TONS better than stock.

if you want something that is easy on teh streets, the 6 puch is not it. You don't have any mods as well.

If you wanted to stick with ACT, get the stage one organic disc with the ACT streetlite flywheel.

Just FYI,the Jim Wolf Technology uses an Exedy clutch disc.

Agreed, a very streetable combo. Car feels much responsive and lighter. rev matching is much much smoother. Grabs hard though and makes this concrete mixer noise. Other than that, its great.

Hi we can get you the JWT clutch kit at a great price. For all around driving I recomend the JWT clutch. The JWT clutch is very smooth and holds 600+ hp. We can get you just about any clutch you need.

I'm getting my JWT clutch / Nismo flywheel installed tomorrow. I wanted the best streetable setup that's slightly better than stock. I'll let you know how it goes.

I know what he meant and it is still BS to say the clutch holds 500+ whp. Besides, clutches are rated with tq specs, not hp.
