Title: g60 flywheel and vr6 clutch
Post by: Jayz on 10 February 2012, 05:26
hey guys, ive seen the kits on ebay for £164-240 but alot of them are sold by techniclutch and they have awful reviews. So im thinking of buying everything separately, im i right in saying i can go euro car parts or gsf and get a sachs vr6 clutch then i just need a used G60/ABF flywheel (im having it lightened and balanced) and flywheel bolts? If so does anyone know the part number of the flywheel bolts and how many i need and anything else i may need?

Thanks in advance

I'm not sure what you're reading, but his reviews are fine.  99.7% would be a pass in anyone's book!  If you look through them anyone with a problem he has put them right.

Just ordered a kit from them myself, arrived today.
