Default civic flywheel, clutch installation

Allright, tomorrow I am finally going to install my stage 1 clutch, lightened flywheel, and short shifter. I have gathered everything I need, including parts, tools, and people who know what the hell they are doing, except..... do I need to use new flywheel bolts? If so, where can I get these without breaking the bank? Thanks.

no, reuse your old bolts. the PP bolts are 10mm 12 points and the flywheel bolts are 12 point 17mm i believe. make sure to use 12 points or you are going to strip the piss out of the bolts.

yeah, USE A TORQUE WRENCH!!! very important. if you use an impact to snug them down you run the risk of snapping the head of the bolts clean off. it wont be hard to do, i've pulled apart a couple tranny's now and there isnt much to it.
