ACT stage 1 and streetlite FW

800 for parts and labor sounds ok.

 

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: $800 INSTALLED for an ACT clutch AND flywheel?!? That is a price that will NEVER happen unless someone likes to work on cars for nothing.

 

I actually have a couple ACT SB5-HDMM clutch kits and matching Streetlite flywheels in stock as well. PM me if you would like a price quote.

I just ordered a 40bb turbo (like yours) from TDC. Will my stock clutch survive?

 

In the near-term with not much abuse, sure. Mine lasted a couple thousand mile before I roasted it trying to pull my truck a few feet :mad: Long-term, abuse, and/or frequent track visits, I don't think so.

 

Congrats man! I hope it gets here soon and that you enjoy it! I love mine! :wub:

The 6 puck ACT's are cheaper than the full facing versions. I believe they have also gone up in price a bit recently.

 

Could be. Not sure. But, the OP says he ordered a Stage I. That's not a full "race" clutch is it?

What some might refer to as a "Stage 1" clutch is the full facing disk with the HD pressure plate. Oddly enough, the the 6 puck clutches which hold more power are actually a little cheaper, albeit not nearly as smooth engaging and easy to drive.

This may be a dumb question, but if ACT has clutches and flywheels that fit the LGT, how come they dont list as having anything for the LGT? Anyone know why if they do have something that works they wouldnt list it? Liability factor maybe? Thanks for any info.

Because ACT technically does not make a drop in LGT clutch kit. The kit that everyone uses on their LGT is actually for an 06+ WRX. The clutch kit only works on our cars if used with ACT 06+ WRX flywheels, an OEM 06+WRX flywheel or other aftermarket equivalent.

Do you recommend the ACT light weight flywheel or the WRX OEM flywheel

 

You should get the ACT LTWT flywheel. You will love the car - much smoother, springs forward much faster (LTWT flywheel is almost half the weight of the OEM GT dual mass "free "dyno-unmeasurable" horsepower" - but be prepared for some NVH. You will soon learn how to avoid it and it will dissapear somewhat as things bed in. The clutch will engage smoother too.

Thanks. My Spec clutch is starting to slip, and it was recommended to me to try ACT clutches, so I might give that a try. I will be replacing mine soon, both the flywheel and clutch.
