Default Quality LWFs

what is a quality brand of LWF for my GT3. I have come up with Stillen and Fidanza so far, but I've heard Fidanza doesn't make the flywheel for late model (05) cars.
I would really appreciate any comments/experiences re LWF on GT3s.

Why not go with the factory LWF setup used in the GT3RS street car? Try searching for comments and experiences re LWF on the GT3. There was a post just earlier this week.

In fact here is the link...

John - John D has not yet approved my Sponsorship application so I can not discuss those things here on the board. I will send you an email to your outside address.

I got a little, just a little, clutch slip yesterday. Ripping up an onramp in 1st, shifted to 2nd at about 8K and got a little slip. Hasn't done it since....and I hammered on it tonight. May be getting close to clutch time. If so, I will prolly do the RS flywheel and clutch combo.

Any idea on best price out there for the parts????

My buddy (owns a Prosche and BMW shop) quoted me about $450 for labor. Not bad IMHO.
