its a good quality piece.. only complaint.. the holes for the bolts to the flywheel where not big enough.. they sort of tappered at the end and when you put the bolts in only allowing 1 thread to show, i ran a 3/8" drill bit through them and took out a tiny bit and that made all the difference.

some more pics of the car
the engine sitting level with a jack under the pan



the car as it sits

i'll have better pictures from a real camera later.. these are from my iTouch

if you want to see my build, you can follow it over here on thirdgen.org

Thanks. Wheels are by REVolution, licensed by American Racing. They are 17x 9. The are a 1 piece, they are made to be a combination of the Torq Thrust II and torq thrust M wheels. They were made to be a lower cost alternative.

Right now i think they only sell tge high offset wheels, so they wouldnt fit 4thgens. But i got them from JDwheels.com

Just curious, does the PP say "Valeo" on it? I'll probably be in the market for a new clutch soon.

Yes definately keep us updated on your clutch. I predict you'll make about 325 rwhp.

I did the Stage 2.5 which I think is rated at 550hp (its on their website). I have to learn how to use the gears again. My previous compo was a SPEC3 (puck) with alum flywheel. Now it shift like a stock clutch.

I have the stage 2.5 as well, that's going in my car this weekend. I haven't heard a bad thing about CCI on ls1tech yet. How much power are you making?


Quick Reply: my Competition Clutch Stage 3 came in.
