Hey guys I have to get a new clutch and I am in need of some advice. The only twin plate I have driven was an exedy and it made a lot of noise i.e. rattling. Is there any clutches that can handle that much power that do not rattle? Also, should I be getting a new flywheel at the same time? Thanks!

it's not a bad idea to replace to flywheel as well when you're in there.

sometimes when the clutch the OE flywheel can get warped or messed up, so it would suck to get everything back together, and then figure out the flywheel is warped, and it has to be removed.

i liked how my car drove with the lighter flywheel too. much quicker throttle response.

as for other clutches besides the exedy twin that can handle higher power levels, you don't have all that many options when you are looking for some quiet. although i believe fidanza has just recently, or will soon be releasing their twin plate, and from what i have heard, it is supposed to be designed to be very quiet.

I actually was thinking about coming down in the accord. However in the mits of all this talk I found out my customers rad shroud(diversion panel) was shipped to my other address instead on here. URGH!! I now have to go to Abbottstown Pa tomorrow to pick it up. He wants it painted black, so I'll be bringing my painting kits. Then its off to Philly to deliver it. Since its already late, I am now obligated to hand deliver the finished product.

Anyone Up for a drop of the hat cruise to Abbottstown instead?
