so not even thinking that i wasnt gunna hve enough cash to finish this swap so im trying to figure out what i can re use if anything i have a 7 bolt motor with a pretty shot clutch and i need a fly wheel for a 6 bolt awd so can i re use my pressure plate off my fwd its act or can i use the 7 bolt pressure plate? whats interchange able to be 100% clear i swaped my motor out of my fwd into a awd with a blown 7 bolt
 
FWD flywheels wont work on AWD cars and vice versa. They are two different size flywheels.
The clutches are the same for both fwd and awd 6 bolt and 7 bolt motors.
 
depending on what you intend to use your car for, a light weight flywheel might not be what you are looking for!

With a light weight flywheel your car will rev quicker and feel more responsive, but if you plan on using the car for drag racing, and insist on using a light flywheel I wouldn't go with the fidanza they are 8lbs which in my opinion are too light. ACT offers a 11.6lb flywheel that might better suit you.

If you plan on auto X, then the fidanza is great!

The reason for this is, with the use of a light flywheel you loose inertia. That will cause your RPM's to fall faster, and you will fall beneath your power range between shifts (unless you use DSM Link's no lift setting).
