Did DKM send new flywheel bolts too or only pressure plate bolts?

If I do order this thing I wanna make sure I have everything in one order.

They send everything you need. New flywheel bolts and pp bolds, some locktite and stuff

I'm very curious to hear if anyone has gotten a chance to test the DKM and South Bend Stage 3 clutches back to back. I'm specifically wondering how they compare to one another as far as peddle effort goes?

There's a guy in this thread who did exactly that. DKM was a great improvement as expected!

EDIT: NVM, it was BFI stage 3

I placed the order for mine tonight! It's estimated ship date is the 10th which is pretty far out, so hopefully it'll come sooner

Either way I can wait!

Your gonna love it. Mine is getting much much better. I'm at 260 of the 700 break in miles. Bench bleed that slave assembly before you put the tranny back in to make sure there are no leaks lol.

I would bet money the dkm peddle feels much better than the SB just because of the twin. It takes less force to produce more bite because of the greater surface area with the twin disc/pp

Just the $500-900 savings alone makes it feel better than SBC, not to mention the more Oem feel and better performance

Do it yourself, it's not a hard job if you have basic knowledge and tools

I've thought about it and I've done everything else on my R with the spring install being the most extensive work. I rent a garage though and it's a ways from my apartment. I think if I owned a home with a garage it would be a different story.

Maybe I'll revisit those Youtube video installs again...

Do you by chance know the size, length and pitch if the hardware? I'm guessing M6 or M8 but it would be nice to grab some ahead of time

The length of the pp bolts we're 3/4 or about 19mm
