Exactly what I recommend :p

I might be able to get you a package with the complete HDSS kit and Fidanza fly for $695 shipped brand new...I would need to check though.

Exedy + Fidanza. Ask Drumsy...I've driven his gs-r and it's great! I know he's lovin it too.

I purchased my Exedy Organic Clutch from one of our advertisor's, www.clutchcityonline.com. For $269.50 shipped, I bought the pressure plate, organic disk, throwout bearing, pilot bearing, and alignment tool. I'm well pleased with the clutch feel, slightly stiffer than stock and great grab.

As for my Fidanza 9lb flywheel, I bought that at the same time from a group buy hosted by Enjuko Racing I believe, on www.groupbuycenter.com I paid around 300 + shipping for that, and installed both. A search on GBC reveals that No Limit Motorsports is selling Fidanza flywheels for $309 shipped, might want to look into that. Group Buy

As for the combination, I'm very happy the outcome. My flywheel allows me to rev up higher, and is great weight reduction, considering it is rotational mass. I think stock GSR flywheel's are around 15 or so lbs. The good thing is though that I don't fall out of VTEC when shifting, as a result of quicker rpm changes. I'd consider it a good buy, and would recommend that combination to anyone who wants a street/race clutch with slightly stiffer engagement and good bite.

I've heard good things about ACT clutches but it looks like drumsy has got himself a nice setup. I wouldn't go below a 9lb flywheel for street purposes but that's just me ;) Plus I have a hard enough time w/the stock flywheel driving up 60 degree inclines when I visit San Fran :oh: Thank god for the handbrake...

I haven't heard many good things about Exedy clutches, they tend to like to grenade from a lot of stories I've heard.

I got the ACT XTSS and 7.5 lbs Clutchmaster flywheel. I agree with Shingo, if I could do it again, I'd go with a 9lbs flywheel, I love the setup for racing, but it's not as great for daily, still love it though.

I agree with Dubster once again...I have heard of a few stories where Exedy's havent held up under semi-mild power.

I can match that GB price, BTW...
