Clutch and Flywheel Replacement

Hello,

I have about 150,000 miles on my car, and it has the original clutch. I bought a Fidanza lightweight flywheel with an ACT clutch. I wanted to know what other parts I need to replace while I drop the transmission. I am planning on replacing the following:

Throwout bearing
Pilot bushing
Clutch pivot ball

Please provide comments on other wear items I should be aware of when replacing the clutch and flywheel. Thank you and hope to hear from anyone soon.

Whenever I change out a flywheel, I always buy new flywheel bolts.

would also recommend changing the rear main engine seal, front and rear transmission seals, transmission fluid, clutch fluid, clutch slave cylinder.

What year is your car? It if it an 03, it is a good idea to replace to the 04+ clutch fork kit. Its way stronger for that heavy duty clutch.

flywheel bolts, SS clutch line, transmission seals and fluid, rear engine seal is a good idea, remove the retarded spring off the clutch pedal.
