my clutch seems to making a strange sound when the car is in neutral and i release the pedal. the sound is a winding rumbling sound but as soon as you push the pedal back in the sound stops. I am starting to think that my clutch is slipping and was thinking about replacing it with a stage 1 kit and 8.5lb flywheel. any ideas?

 

what will the flywheel do? i have been wondering this for some time

 

it allows your car to accelerate faster. the lighter weight is less to turn and will rise through the gears faster. any idea on the noise

 

when u take it apart replace the bearings (throwout bearing should come with any good kit you buy and the pilot bearing also with the flywheel)

 

is there any drawbacks?

 

not that i have ever heard of. i am sure that there is somewhere
