Lightweight flywheel & GTA clutch

Prices are exclusive of VAT.

Most 3.0 GTVs and Spiders have a dual mass flywheel fitted as standard. These are very heavy at 12.6kgs (!) and tend to develop an imbalance over time as the internal intermediate mass spring system wears. This kit replaces the dual mass flywheel with a much lighter solid item which weighs just 8kgs and includes an Alfa Romeo OE GTA friction plate, pressure plate and release bearing.

We recently fitted this kit to the Alfaholics 3.0 GTV and the difference is amazing. Throttle response is dramatically improved as the engine is much freer revving and picks up better at low revs. The engine is also smoother, which serves to show that the old dual mass flywheel had worn and developed an imbalance. The feel of the clutch is also lighter yet more positive than the standard set up. It is a common complaint amongst 3.0 GTV and Spider owners that their clutch action feels notchy and "gritty". Well, the new clutch has cured this problem on our car - it appears to be a result of wear on the pressure plate which also makes the clutch action very heavy. You don't always notice these things deteriorate over time but this kit has transformed the car. This is an essential upgrade, especially if your clutch needs replacing!

Supplied as a complete kit comprising lightweight solid flywheel, friction plate, pressure plate, release bearing, adapter ring, new flywheel bolts and new pressure plate bolts.
