g60 lightened and balanced flywheel?

master cyinder and flywheel would be ideal

Im getting a spec stage 3 clutch and it comes with a balanced g60 flywheel. So the master cylinder would be worth changing? What about the slave?

 

[cuprachrissy]

slave doesnt need changing imo

 

[cupramillo]

Any ideas how much the master cylinder is? Iirc i dont think they are that much

WHy does he need to change the master cylinder?

If i was doing a new clutch on an ibiza i would do vr6 clutch, g60 flywheel, flywheel bolts and release bearing. I'd also bleed the clutch as its easy to do.

I should be getting a spec stage 3 clutch with a g60 SMFW soon for a very good pirce, otherwise i would have gone v6/g60. So theres no point doing the master cylinder? Think is about 6months afo i had a sticky clutch pedal, turned out the garage had left the bleed nipple off the master cylinder, but im guessing its still on the original cylinder.

Master Cylinder 6K2721401A £46.90 + VAT
Slave Cylinder 1J0721261J £31.05 + VAT

Cheers Phil, i might aswell change them for piece of mind and there not overly expensive!

thing is when i got my sachs stg3 done advice i was given was to get it all done at same time as clutch work labour isnt cheap and so it can all mate nicely, i meant the release bearing not the master cylinder get confused lol so bought cutch dual mass flywheel and release bearing mind you i paid 80 for the work to be lol
