Exclamation Flywheel resurfacing -- Good place in So. Cal / Good aftermarket clutch?

Hey guys...

Just got my series 5 j-spec motor, and was wondering if anybody knows of a good shop to get the flywheel resurfaced @ in southern california (pasadena actually...).

Also, the pressure plate looks similar to the flywheel (little smooth indentations all around it) -- is it time for a new clutch?

If so, what do you recommend in the way of aftermarket clutches? (i'm shooting for 300-375 rwhp eventually)

Thanks!,
Manolis

Cool, thanx...

Forgot to ask... About how much does this service cost?

Also, what do people think of ACT clutches? (for ~375 rwhp)?

Thanks!,
Manolis

He charged me $250 for resurfacing the friction plate on my aluminum flywheel, pressure plate to match the amount of meat taken out from the friction plate, full kevlar clutch and T/O bearing.


Don’t have experience with ACT but I heard theyre ok.
