Flywheel

Recommended Posts

Some of you may know

but yeah

my clutch replacement was put on hold because of a whole heap of crap

so we just had the fly wheel lightweighted since it was going to be machined as well

ive weighed it, just got it back today

it weights in at 5.9 kgs,

Is that a good weight

it feels a considerable amount lighter than before

how heavy is the stock standard ones ?

does any one know the specs

how heavy are yours ?

if youve had them weighed before

see you

For the E30 M3 standard it's 19lbs Evo 2\3 it's 12 lbs, for track it's 8lbs and you get gearbox chatter, but for your's that light.... it will interesting to see the outcome of yours... more so from a standing start, i'm sure it will spool up quicker to redline, but comes at a price noisy gearbox. Let us know how it works out.

so thats about 13 lbs... mine was about 12lbs but i didnt like it, felt like the car lost a lot of grunt and i was forever changing gear. it was a lot of fun but i missed the 3rd gear "pull" i had with the standard flywheel.

chuck it in you might like it and its easy enough to change it back if you dont.
