    Anyone running ECS RA4 Stage 2 w/steel flywheel? Need feedback.

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Looking to get a clutch job done soon. Currently favoring ECS RA4 Stage 2 clutch kit with mid-weight steel flywheel ($985 for both kit/FW). Rated 412HP/482TQ using OEM B5 RS4 clutch disc and pressure plate.

    Needs to deal with low-key GTRS running 91 file. Daily driver car, minimal traffic.

    Found a few B5 users over @ AW, but not much. Any feedback here? Tx.

    Shouldn't be an issue for the power your making at high elevation and if you dont plan on drag racing it.

    I don't have the steel flywheel, but I do have this setup with the LWFW. Had it installed at 44k miles. Now hitting 130k miles with several all-day track sessions (not drag strip). Clutch still holds up very well. If I had to do it again, I would get the same clutch, but with the steel flywheel to reduce the minimal chatter. Good stuff!
