^^^I agree, very good point. Not only do they match the propeller shaft (driveshaft), they match all their rotating parts (even brake rotors!), so you end up with an extremely balanced car -- coupling the Spoon flywheel with their propeller shaft I would think would make the car much easier to drive that just getting a lightened flywheel alone, and will also allow your engine to rev quicker and put more of the power to the ground.

Thanks alot guys for your input, really helped me out..

the only bad thing ive heard about ACT clutch kit is their disc that acts weird after some abusing * launching and all*..but anything is better than my current clutch.

ive decided to go with the fidanza as you guys really recommend..ill look around and ask about the spoon,

i have total trust in fidanza cause i used it before..So i guess by next week start breaking in

i bought my car with an act clutch/fidanza flywheel, everything else stock. at first i HATED it, it definately takes some time to get used to.. the pedal kicks back at you and if youre not expecting it, you'll stall. i've gotten used to it and its not so bad now.. i did some research around here and some people say the fidanzas a bad choice because its made of aluminum. people say it can shatter and possibly fly through the transmission and saw off a leg. people say chromoly is a better choice. if i could choose i'd go with a full spoon set up. hope this helps.

I think aluminum is probably fine, but when modding my car, I like to use the best quality parts within my reach. Aluminum's rate of expansion when heated is much faster than the steel starter gear that is pressed onto it, so this could mean shatter-death-leg-saw. Again, not likely, but a nice chromoly flywheel doesn't cost much more, so why not do that instead?

I had a Techno Pro Spirit 3.9kg chromoly flywheel mated to a Cusco Reinforced clutch on my old AE86 and it was streetable with about a week's worth of practice, though I still stalled it occasionally for the next couple years.
