FlyWHEEL HELP

hey guys

i have a question on lightened flywheel options for my FC its currently an Automatic with the S4 engine N/A with S5 N/A components in an S5 chassis. and i plan on making it into a Manuel with a S5 transmission and drive-shaft that i have in my garage. im currently looking to get the Exedy clutch kit and ACT lightened flywheel for it.

my question is:

which clutch and flywheel series (S4 or S5) do i need to get to install to make this happen or dose it not make a difference?


and for the also for the flywheel, can i install this ACT flywheel on my car?
heres the link........

http://performance.importrp.com/act/...1/i-47719.aspx

the fitment options are making me confused i think it says i can put this on my car regardless if its N/A or Turbo or is there another option to take just wanted to know cause i found this guy on CL who is selling that particular model for cheap then what the website is asking.

thanks a lot

ricky

The flywheel itself would work on any 13b engine, but you need a counterweight that matches your series of engine (S4). The link says it comes with a matching counterweight, but says nothing about what year it would be. S4 and S5 counterweights are different.

Also, having an automatic flywheel/transmission means you already have a removable counterweight that matches your engine. Most people use buy an auto counterweight to pair with their aftermarket flywheel, but I don't know for sure if it would work with this particular one.

Turbo and N/A flywheels are different. N/A's are stepped and Turbos are flat. I believe ACT doesn't realize this fact, and I have never seen an ACT flywheel that works for an N/A.

Just bolt up the counterweight that's in your car now. Clutch series doesn't matter.
