Default Anyone with Z1 twin plate clutch?

I'm looking for a light clutch and flywheel combo.
I'm not looking to hold monster power...actually its pretty stock, just bolt ons.

Is the twin plate clutch overkill? Seems like they are lighter than the traditional flywheel/clutch combo.

Twin is a bit overkill for a car at stock power levels. Unless you are doing lots of drag racing with slicks I would stick with a quality single plate clutch.

So a light clutch/flywheel setup wouldn't benefit my n/a car?

It will be lighter but over kill for your power level.

A simple Quality single disk clutch with LW flywheel will drive much better for street use and you won't have to deal with the on/off switch of a twin disk clutch.
If that doesn't bother you go for it!!

But for people with higher hp, how do these compare to lets say a os or other brand twin disk? I am in the market for a clutch as well, and the price seems legit.
