Need Some Opinions On My Clutch Situation
Posted: Tue Feb 06, 2007 3:50 pm
I dropped the EJ22T (stock) into my NA FWD a year ago. When I did this I installed a 98 RS Flywheel and Exedy OEM clutch (also for the 98 RS). This combination has about 3k miles on it as is. Now I have finally found a 4.11 Tranny that is worthy of the swap. I want to put a Exedy stage I clutch and a LW flywheel in eventually. But my question is will the RS Flywheel and Clutch kit handle the AWD well enough to leave it in? I can quarantee that the AWD will have some hard dumps coming its way (kinda in a hurry to kill the 4.11 tranny so that I am forced to send it out for a dog box 
).
I have no problem pulling a slightly used RS clutch and flywheel to replace it with something better. But if the combination will hold without slip in the AWD I might as well use it.
Just for the curious: The eventual goal for the car is to have 250 AWHP....its going to be a year or two.
Another question I have is:
When I go to the Exedy Stage I and LW flywheel should I just get the BC/BF Legacy Flywheel and Clutch or is there a better option (off say like a RS, Rex, or STi)?
