if you are going to do the ACT flywheel, i would reccomend the streetlight. but also do the ACT organic clutch. it is well worth doing both. it is also very streetable. i actually feel that it is easier to driver smoothly than with the stock clutch.

if youre going with exedy go with the stage 1 I only paid $395 for it and its working great so far. By the way Exedy makes the oem clutch.

So which of these is more daily driver friendly yet can take the power of launching the car for drag racing at about 3-4K and about 400tq? I'm reading about the ACT streetlite and Exedy clutch now and they seem to have good reviews. People with these clutches please chip in I need a new clutch I think my clutch pedal keeps getting sticky and doesnt come up after launches and hard shifts to second gear. I am going to call the dealer today to see what I can do. Master cylinder or a flush. And then go from there.

I recommend the Nismo flywheel is lighter than the stock but it wont give you any chatter
