New Clutch Timeand Flywheel?
I am running 432/375 on my 2003 STi, and the original clutch is now occasionally starting to slip, so I will have to think about getting a new one pretty soon.
Is it 100% worth getting a lightened flywheel at the same time? As they add approx £200 more on to the bill, or is it just worth getting mine skimmed. I've never driven a car with a lightened fly wheel before to be honest so don't know what to expext.
And clutches; I want it rated for around 500/500 minimum, as I will hit that figure soon hopefully.
- I know there is the Exedy Hyper Twin Plate Clutch for around £1400, which is quite steep to be honest.
- But also there is an ACT Clutch for around £599 I think without flywheel which is rated to 515torques. BOB off here recommends these.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks a lot

I did think about keeping it standard and skimming it.
Obviously the revs drop a lot faster...is this bad for driving to the shops and work etc.....as in harder work to drive?
