but do all the specs match up like the pressure plate and disc will work with the ACT flywheel....thats my question. i dont think the fx300 would be worse than a 6 puck, cuz i drove my friends car and he used ACT 6 puck and it wasnt bad at all..actually liked it

stay with the same brand if u can...then u would have no doubts that it will work...i have the cm stage 4 and its pucked, engagement isnt that bad compared to stock and will handle gobs of powa....good upgrade if u will eventually mod more....

i was thinkin about goin clutchmasters clutch and flywheel, but the only thing is clutchmasters flywheel is really light....10.5 lbs....and im affraid thats to light and might break something?? the mods i have now will stay the way they are until the end of summer where i will have cams and nitrous...im just worried if the flywheel would be to light for now?

I have this combo in my G35 and it works great, BTW im N/A and basicly have no other mods. I got it after i had a breakdown and had to take the tranny out, so took the opportunity and installed the fx300 and act flywheel. The ACT flywheel is a single piece chromoly unit btw so its going to give a lot less chatter than JWT.
