Hi all

Just wanted to put this out to you guys as i need abit of info...........

i have a 1999 V5 JDM Sti Wagon and i am going to replace the clutch for a standard or mild fast road clutch kit soon
The question is...the standard flywheel,what weight could i machine it to???? as i work in a machine shop so it could be machine quite easy,and hearing that cars gain from a lighten flywheel wondered what safe thickness or weight would be ok

Hope u lot can shed some light on this

Cheers

You can take them down to around 7.5kgs iirc before they become too weak.

You would need to know what you're doing though, a flywheel shattering can be lethal.

It's not something I would want on my car tbh.

For below 300bhp a Exedy OEM clutch will do the job, above 300bhp to 400bhp you will want an Exedy Racing Organic

Here is a proper lightweight forged flywheel (around 5kgs), which are very strong, reliable and great quality.

 

by the way, thanks bob for my lightened flywheel, arrived today at work....

great price and great service.....thanks...

 

You're most welcome

 

One of these! LOL.
Although too light imho on my car
