i thought about this kit, just remember that the lightened flywheel means u need to change gear quite quickly as the rev's of the engine drop quicker, i opted for the g60 flywheel as it means u can still drive the car comfortably and not have to rush a gear change.  the info i've just shared was gained from trawling through many threads on the subject and weighing up the options. my vr6 + G60 upgrade is happening on saturday, so i'll let u know how i get on :)

nice, you must be excited :grin:.

just ordered the ECS one. doubt i'll get it for a while as its a friday :undecided:, then i'll have to book it into the garage. but should be good as my clutch has been slipping for almost 2 months! :rolleyes:
