Quick Q: Clutches... - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Paul Workman · 09-13-2009

IF I need to do anything about my clutch, NOW would be the time!

1) (Pardon me Pete), I don't remember the new and the "go, no-go" thickness of the (stock) clutch disc. If someone has those measurements, and mine is more than halfway to the good side, I'll forego further expen$e for now and reinstall what I have.

2) Other than the racket resulting from a single mass FW, is there anything I should know about if I attempt to reinstall my existing (used but good?) disc and pressure plate to a new (Fidanza?) FW? What about balancing the whole works and where in the Chi-town area would someone be able to do the balancing if necessary?

3) I heard that AutoZone is a good source for clutch (pressure plate, disc, & TO bearing) replacements for our Zs, no?

Thanks in advance!
