Took my g to a local performance shop where kris79 works at to have my JWT clutch+flywheel and my hks exhaust to be installed. So heres my review:

JWT Clutch+flywheel:
I found the clutch to be pretty hard to drive. It felt like I have to learn how to drive stick all over again. When I was pulling out of the shop to go work, i died out about 5 times trying to reverse out and i couldnt even move! there was a **** load of ppl watching me and it was embarrassing. Anyhow, it felt like i was learning how to drive stick again because the engagement point went down REALLY REALLY LOW and it was still stiff. I Would have to barely let go of the clutch and i would be engaging. Other than that, I have better, smoother shifting and its great except for the chattering noise I hear from the flywheel but im used to it now.

HKS Exhaust:
I fell in love with my exhaust when i heard it. its just the way i want my exhaust to sound. up to 3.5k rpm its not loud, but rather deep and pretty quiet compared to other hks exhausts for other cars. High rpm sounds REALLY aggressive. im not sure on the gains tho.

i dont have pics yet but i will post em up after i get a car wash because my car is dirty as hell right now xD


Thanks to kris79 for hooking it up for the installations

 

nice! you from sj?
how much did it cost for the clutch + flywheel? that sounds like exactly what i want from my car. I drove my friends modded rx7 and it sounds like it is just like what you described and i loved how stiff it was and how quickly it engaged.

 

im from SF. i payed 775 shipped =D youll love the exhaust tho

 

glad u like it. dude ur stock was messed up big time lol

 

lol forreals i was scared to drive it around. thanks for the good work tho

 

how much torque can that JWT clutch handle?

 

alot, many G's with TT's and SC's upgrade the the JWT Clutch/flywheel combo

i am very happy with my JWT clutch/flywheel combo, only thing i hate is the chatter

 

What weight flywheel did you get?

 

13lbs

 

And it rattles a lot?
I want the JWT combo to but I hate that rattle.

 

yeah it rattles A LOT. at first , it didnt rattle as much but after 600 miles, it rattles a whole lot. like it makes other ppl think that something is wrong with my car lol but it doesnt bother me as much when my music is on

 

Yes it rattles alot but only when you first drive off then it goes away

 

i hear it when I am in the low rpms between 0 and around 2300 lol. BTW did your engagement point go back up really high after breaking it in?? Either I drove the clutch really wrong or the clutch is like that. My catch point is all the way almost at the tip again like how it used to be wit my OEM clutch now. When I first installed the clutch, the catch point was so low that I could barely drive it. Now its pretty high up there. Is the clutch a self-adjusting clutch where it supposingly adjusts to your driving habits and changes the engagement point??

 

HKS =

 

yeyeyeee
