Yeah, Keisha just got word to me that the flywheel was toasted as well. We were contemplating on either getting a resurfaced stock one, or going with the Fidanza. We need the car back by Thurs. no later so we can make it to the Nopi in Knoxville show this weekend. The Fidanza flywheel could have been overnighted to ZPI, but it would have put us at Thurs. on getting the car back. I need to test her out before making the 3 hr trip to Knox, so that would be cutting it close. So, our options were a resurfaced Stock flywheel that they had in shop, or wait one more day for the Fidanza. But as I was trying to make up my mind, Joey found a Stock flywheel that did not need any resurfacing, and installed it alreadly.... But I will upgrade to a Fidanza one, when the tC becomes LESS of a daily driver, and become Strip only. Probably by next year, I will upgrade the ZPI Red Clutch(Street/Strip) to a ZPI Black one (Strip use only). I don't have all the gushy details on their latest line of clutch components, I just know that we will be rocking the very first one. I do know that the RED clutch is equalvalent to a Stage 3 of the other popular clutch kits. I will of course provide my comments on it(pedal feel, engagement point, etc..). Use to have a Clutchmasters Stage 1, felt like stock, but not strong enough for the way I drove it.

Your crackin me up dog...

But yeah, I don't have all the details on the products to share knowledge on it yet. I'm sure they will update the site soon enough with the other new products. I think the count was 10 New additional products (last time I checked anyway).

Interested in a new clutch/flywheel. I hope the Red is not a "puck" style clutch...ive seen those types of clutches eat up toyota trannies.
