I purchased this kit a couple months ago when I was installing my Fidanza Flywheel and Spec Stage 3 clutch. I got it because I had heard that my new flywheel was thicker than the stock one. This kit includes flywheel bolts, as well as a plate to protect the flywheel from the bolts digging in, pressure plate studs and nuts, and a dowel pin. Altogether this was over $60 with shipping, which was just normal shipping (not overnight or anything...). The bolts worked fine and I didn't have to tap the crank to add more threads. Just needed red loctite and torqued to 100 ft. lbs. As for the pressure plate studs...They were a huge mistake to put in. They did not let the pressure plate sit flush against the flywheel at the recommended torque (11-16 ft. lbs), so there was a gap between the two. I did not notice this, and reinstalled it. My car would not disengage, and was down for 3 months while I replaced every other part of the clutch assembly including the hydraulics, welding the pedal assembly, pivot ball and fork, and a ss line. After replacing the studs with bolts, everything worked great. You also won't have to worry about taking out the studs later if you ever need to, which would probably ruin them anyways. Hold on to the stock bolts! I didn't and they were $16 from the dealer...
