So yea... my car has been almost stalling when I am starting and in second gear....at first i thought it ws the IAC...I have not cleaned it but Im sure that is not the problem...I was just messing aroudn the other day with my friends and tried to burn out (yes I know I have an ST) I use to be able to tweak the tires no problem...That is not the case anymore..=[.... So I tried an dthe car went but did not jump off the line like it used too...just kinda slowly went up in speed.. and then I smelt the clutch...I was hoping it was just glazed over or something so I drove it around and tried again...same thing...At this point my car is still drivable but I know its only a matter of time now....So any can anyone recomend a good clutch setup for the 1.8l I was thinking of going with ACT but its kinda pricey...and how do you guys feel about changing the flywheel or should i just get it resurfaced...

For an ST the standard clutch is fine, but if you want something a little stronger...RPS do an extensive range of clutches varying in type and torque capability. The organic clutches they do have good pedal feel and drivability.
Definately get the flywheel resurfaced at the very least. Lightweight alloy flywheels are good, but maybe a little overkill for an ST (no offence). spend the money on performance/handling mods instead |
