OK - the competition clutch price from Courtenay's: "£386.40 for the uprated cover and organic disc (5-9)" - I assume this means units Can I ask that everyone updates the list with the type of flywheel and clutch they want ie Z22SE or Z20LET as the prices are per type, not total volume (although I am willing to have this conversation). I will post the current list with my update following this post. Thanks Paul

Id rather snog a cat than pay that for a single plate clutch. The fast road price in this thread looked a lot more like it, didnt figure it would be double for 30bhp more.

To ensure I don't drop out please remove me from the clutch buy as the total cost is getting a bit much with the slave cylinder as well.

The key rating for your clutches is torque not bhp. Can courtenays clarify the torque rating. If so, some of you may find you need the higher rated clutch as you may already be at the clutch limit and also if you are planning on future power upgrades. What is the difference between fast road clutch, competition clutch and a paddle clutch? Finally pressure plates are significant part of the ability of the clutch. If you are running higher power / torque or are planning to, then you really need to change the pressure plate too. Do those prices include an updated pressure plate?

Is a lightened flywheel safe to use with a turbod z22se (~260bhp/~330nm) or it will stick in my back at some point?

ok, but i guess it also depends how light the wheel eventually gets, right? so say i am still after some ways of getting 330-350bhp and some more torque out of that z22se, but now having it turbod i mainly wanna walk that way. so with that performance in mind what weight is still ok for the flywheel? also, apart from revving up easier what other benefits of the lightened flywheel? and what drawbacks? (eg uphill performance may drop..?) sorry if these are lame question but my knowledge on performance tuning is more than inadequate..
