Message Well, I see most people on here recommend the RPS clutch and flywheel if you plan on doing any kind of racing. I also saw for daily driver (non-racing) purposes, stock w/ a resurfaced flywheel is the way to go for replacement.

I plan on using mine as a daily driver but I also plan on taking her to the track for periodic drag racing and maybe a little autocross action. I'll get her back to Stage IV fairly soon and then I'll rest there for a while.

I've found lots of good info on the RPS products but not a whole lot on the Z1 Motorsports products. Z1 is selling a clutch/flywheel package for $674. It is their own brand. Anybody have any reviews of this package? If it is a good, reliable package that will suit my needs, I might go for it. If it is going to crap out on me after a short time, I'll pass for better quality. It's definitely the most inexpensive route.

Also, how do the Fidanza, JWT, & NISMO flywheels compare to the RPS? I'm not looking to spend a crapload of cash unnecessarily but I also don't want to buy crap products. I've compared a lot of packages and this is what I have so far:
