Is there a "sprung" 6 puck out there for the FD?
Hey guys, I've been looking at buying a 6 puck, but I REALLY want something that's going to be sprung. Everything I've found is solid. Does anybody know where I can find a sprung 6 puck? Thanks a lot! ~A-Rod

Rather than making a new thread, anyone know where I could get a flywheel counterweight for the best price? I know rx7store's is 125, but I thought I've seen a few cheaper... any reason?

Go to www.specclutch.com, click on 'products,' 'stage 3' and then the flashing 'info.'
If you want a cheap auto c/w, get one in the 2nd gen parts for sale section. don't forget the hardware, worst case you can order it from ray at malloy.

I don't recommend any kind of 6 puck for the street. Although they are capable of holding more power, most are a bitch and a half to drive smoothly on the street.
You have to resort to slipping the clutch, which leads to very quick flywheel friction surface wear. I ran the act/racing beat combo and it sucked. Unless you are running 20+ lbs of boost, you don't need a 6 puck. An act street/strip will be plenty. Better yet, an Exedy twin disk would be the best option for the street and track if you can afford it.

). The reason I am leaning towards a 6 puck is because I am planning on going single sometime late next year. I know a year sounds like a long time away, but I only put about 5,000 a year max on my FD, and this year is almost over(for the FD). I figure I might as well get it out of the way now, rather than have the hassle of replacing it when I make more power.

I have the ACT sprung 6puck with the HD pressure plate from RX7Store and also run the ACT Streetlite flywheel... it was a bitch for the first few hundred miles breaking it in but after about 400 miles it felt great. Easily streetable and grabs great!
