Default Anyone used or got opinion on these LW flywheels?

Hi guys,

i'm looking at getting a lightened flywheel for my 02 WRX 5 speed box as i'm having the bottom end rebuilt and thought i'd do the clutch and fly at the same time.

Anyone used or got opinions on these flywheels?

I use ACT flywheels, Streetlite at 6.1 kgs and Prolite at 4.4 kgs. To my surprise we have not had any issues associated with light flywheels even with the 4.4kg item.
We also have a machining mod to improve the clamp pressure where the clutch assembly in use may be marginal. Very happy with these and at £235 represent real value for money.

Anyone know what the deal is with this so called "lightened flywheel":

Seems a bit cheap to me, and probably too good to be true! anyone bought/fitted one?
