Alright, I've got the bug to upgrade my clutch and flywheel. I was thinking about going with the ACT XAct chromoly flywheel and a Star (is it called Spec now?) Stage 2 kevlar clutch. I don't really want an ACT 2600 as I'm going to be driving this thing all the time, and the 2100 doesn't really seem to be worth the money compared the almost new stock style clutch I've got. Is the Stage 2 smooth enough for a daily driver?
Also, I'm planning on using a stock Mitsu headgasket, Clevlite bearings, and whatever for misc gaskets. I'm kind of undecided on rings, whether to go for Sealed Power, Mitsu, or Beck/Arnley. I'm also undecided on the timing belt, instinct says go Mitsu, but Autozone carries a Goodyear Gatorback version of the timing belt, which should be pretty good. Way too many options here

I dont know much about the other parts, but i do have a star clutch in my car and i am real happy with it. it does have a lot of clutch chatter, but it seems to be real strong to be able to handle my hard driving. good luck!!!!!!
