So now the Clutch Question. I have some good power under the hood so far now. What I am doing is using my Stock T5 BorgW 1981 280zx N/A tranny with the 225mm Clutch & Flywheel this weekend. So how much can will that stock one take. Cause im prolly in the low 200's in HP as my compression is excellent. Thus I was thinking of just getting a Really stiff beefy 225mm ACT clutch kit with the Fidanza Aluminum flywheel in the next few months. So when I reach a Higher HP rating say 350hp that should be fine to use correct?

 

Cause I figure I should be able to use the Stock N/A clutch for now and just not ride her to hard while going to school and save up for the Act/Fidanza stuff later with new Injectors and Fuelpump yes?...

Frist: N/A it is not a T5.

Second: In good shape the clutch you have will hold 200hp.

Thrird: More ponies then that, get a 240mm (turbo/2plus2) flywheel, or (what ever flywheel you want, aftermarket).

Forth: get the fly and pressure plate balenced, if stock 240mm, get it lighented.

The 225mm to 240mm is a DIRECT swap!

So the Automatic Turbo Flywheel will be 240mm then correct?

So the 225mm Clutch Bolts right to 240mm Flywheel? no weirdness? or do I need to get the 240mm Clutch.

 

Im Dumb n the head right now so.

 

the 225mm I have now will i have to take the flywheel off the one Z (5speed) or can I leave the 240mm on the Turbo and run the 225mm Clutch
