Clutch/Flywheel Install, what else should be done?

I purchased an Exedy Stage 2 Clutch and a Fidanza flywheel since my original clutch finally died at 113K miles

I want to know, what else should I have the shop do while everything is apart? Seals or whatever that would be worth doing with 113K miles on the car.

I very much appreciate any help!

P.S. My order wont ship until monday, so it can still be modified, will the exedy stage 2 be OK for this mod list:

Cattman Headers + Y-pipe
Cattman full exhaust
UO Billet Crank Pulley
Berk Intake
JWT S1 Knockoff Cams

NWP Phenolic Intake Spacers to come (when they are released for the DE-K)
Intercooled S/Cer at 11psi to come as well Piecing one together.

Thanks!

You should go ahead and replace the Rear Main Seal while you've got the oil pan dropped.

Report back on the Fidanza also, one of the screw holes for the clutch had a bad thread when I installed mine. SurraTT had the same issue. We had to go to the parts store and buy a little bit longer bolt, and we switched out 2 other bolts to balance it out. Let me know if you run into this issue.

You'll love the setup, good luck!
