I was satisified with my UR when I put a clutch/flywheel into my previous car. But that wasn't a G.

I put up a post about Z1 Motorsport's new light flywheel and clutch a couple of weeks ago and I still love it. They should be getting some more in any day now.

If you're staying N/A, I'd say go with an organic single plate clutch like the JWT, Exedy Stage 1, or Clutchmasters (not that sure on this last one). Then pair it with an aluminum flywheel like JWT or Fidanza. These will keep costs down, relatively. If you have money to burn, or plan to go F/I, then there are many other options as well.

I just installed the RPS Flywheel and Clutch combo and so far it works great, I love its performance.

Check out the tech section. There are quite a few reviews of clutches and so forth and some impressions of them after some time on the road too. Good luck.
