I hate this kind of stuff...

 

ACT is a good company - I have UR's flywheel/clutch (kevlar 6 puck w/ small springs)...the clutch is a PITA for traffic, but otherwise great.

 

ok, ordered the ACT 6 puck clutch/prolite flywheel combo. Thanks for the input

 

As I told you before, I went with the ACT Prolite 13lb cromoly flywheel, and their SS clutch setup. It's the HD pressure plate with the organic street disc. Driveability is a huge factor for me, plus I won't be pushing as much TQ as your setup will eventually.

 

6 puck sprung clutch not streetable?

 

Just depends on your definition of streetable. Alot of guys run that and say it feels like stock. I've tried an ACT 6-puck on another car, and it was way too on/off for me. My buddy told me the same thing, that it felt like stock. So...

With your setup though, I think it warrants the loss of drivability to get a stronger clutch. You'll be pushing alot more TQ than me.

 

kk, hopefully it works out well, its the one i ordered now...will let you drive it once it's all broken in, adn you can tell me what you think about it.

 

me too??? A straight 6-puck would be even more on/off than mine ...but if you have that much power, then you'll need it.

 

hehe, you can take it for a spin too
also...taking suggestions for future mods as well...still need front & rear camber/toe kits, shocks, brakes, 4point cage, seats, harnesses, body kit, CF parts (hood, hatch, roof panel, pillars). Then, hopefully I can be done with her.

 

front & rear camber/toe kits - Eibac/SPC Performance
shocks - Koni Yellows
brakes - OEM brembos front/rear
4point cage - Cusco
seats - Brides
harnesses - Takata
body kit - Amuse, Vertex, or V2 Nismo
CF parts - Asuka hatch, Mastergrade hood/pillars/mirror covers/ Asuka Hood

 

was thinking:
camber spc
shocks koni yellow
brakes ap 6pot f, 4pot rear
cage kirk racing
seats bride (if i fit, im 6'5", about 220-230lbs)
harness takata
body kit nismo v2 or veilside v3
CF parts nismo v1 jap edition CF spoiler, seibon hatch (with light weight glass) seibon vt hood, mastergrade or asuka pillars (A and B), roof, mirrors

Some of the same taste I see. Might just stay away from the CF parts alltogether though. If I do that, it's the Nismo for sure.

will probably take a little bit, because of the amount that I just dropped on the turbo setup. Need to replenish some of my funds

also, I forgot, I still need the GTspec braces, the homemade oil catch tank mod, painted headlights and taillights, and MAYBE a built motor later down the road if I feel the itch for like 650whp!!! Guessing I will already have issues traction as it sits.

 

before you start buying all this stuff, maybe come out to an AutoX or Track day and see where you'd like to improve your Z...I've found that it helps to do this for suspension type of mods - it'll also give you a better feel for how the car has changed. (not saying that you can't do this on the street, it's just a bit harder to do it legally )

 

It all depends on your particular needs. Is it a daily driver? Will you be tracking it regularly? Will you be drag racing? AutoX? All different setups.

 

My guess is the car will be set up specifically to beat Devil Z at the street races

 

From what I keep hearing, it already is...even in its current stock form.

 

Redlude97: “Godamn street racers!”
DevilZ: “Street’s close Pizza boy! Find another way home!”

 

oh no you did not just say that! LOL

 

already destroyed him twice on the streets. Car will be designed to destroy on the streets, also I love drag racing. Would like to start to get into auto-x as well.

 

I would suggest joining some of the auto-x guys in stock form before the TT goes on then, because from what I've heard, modded/turboed cars behave more unpredicably and makes it much harder to learn etc.

 

need to get out there fast then, i think my turbo's go n next week...anything coming up this weekend?
