Clutch flywheel help!
so clutch went out on the car now, so now i need to switch out, however i dont have , much knowledge when it come to the clutch and flywheel stuff.
i really dont race it unless me and my friends are bored and decide to goof off. in the backroad. i like the stiffness of a racing clutch, cause i bought the car used with an excedy stage 2. there was alot of sound, especially in reverse, if i didnt put it in hard in reverse it felt like the car would struggle, and it sounds like a piece of metal dragging on the ground.
IDK if i should put an oem or another racing clutch. i found a set-up that was an ACT pressure plate, but the clutch disc and and flywheel was a brand called F1 racing. idk if this is a good setup the price was low.
and im a college student, so im actually looking for something at a low price. shoot me some ideas, thanks

You may check this deal out. It's a pretty good clutch/flywheel combo that we've been using for years. VERY streetable.

If you need just the clutch we can set you up with that as well. Feel free to PM or call me with any questions.

This combo is a very mild setup. It's what we usually use as our OEM replacement. It's not designed to handle crazy power, it's designed for the lightly modded Z/G.

There are lots of clutches that will suit your needs. Don't get caught up in the "stage" thing. Stages are not comparable from one brand to another. Keep in mind that if it looks like the OEM clutch it will perform similar to the OEM clutch.
If you want a clutch with some room to grow power wise I would recommend a JWT Combo this setup held over 500ft-lb on my personal car with stock driveability.

If you want something more like a stock replacement, our clutch flywheel is very affordable and drives stock.

This combo also includes a SS clutch line.

if you dont have any major mods planned, I'd simply go for the OE replacement clutch. No real sense installing something you're never going to use

if you want a lightweight flywheel, you have a choice of 2 piece or 1 piece. Either work well, 1 piece tend to be a bit quieter and can be resurfaced at least 1 time in their life. 2 piece units don't get resurfaced, their friction surface gets replaced (it's bolted in place)
