Default Flywheel

Hey folks,
I just had a custom clutch built and was looking at the various flywheels available on the market right now. I am trying to decide between the Toda, Cusco, JUN, and RPS. If anyone has any of these flywheels and could give me their opinions that would be great.

Thanks

What do you mean you had a custom clutch built? I don't follow there...

As for the flywheel, what are you going to be doing with the car? Different weight flywheels and different materials will be more suitable for different conditions.

why would you waste that type of money building a custom clutch on a car that only has such minor mods, according to your signature

i'm assuming he wouldn't buy standalone and a wideband for bolt-ons, and since his sig also says turbo to come soon i think that might be what it's for.

The engine is going to be pulled this winter, and the entire thing is going to be rebuilt... dartons sleves, cp (.0 to 1 comp. pistons, crower rods, skunk2 stage 2 cams, ferra valves, springs, and retainers. I will also be putting on a love fab = length with a GT30R. Anyway, I had a custom clutch build because it only cost me $400 and it will be able to handle 500+ horsepower, while still being very drivable on the street (full disk, that is still sprung). Well, I don't want to drop my tranny just to replace the clutch, so I figured I would get my performance flywheel as well. I want to stay away from aluminum and go with a chromoly flywheel. As stated I will be going turbo and making a fair about of hp.

Anyway, all plans reveiled does anyone have an experience with the rps flywheel? That is the one I am leaning toward, but am confused about the material it is made of. All it says everywhere I look is "billet" which leads me to think aluminum, but i'm not sure. So, if you have any thoughts or opinions on the flywheels listed above I would appreciate hearing them.

well i dunno about those FW's but i have a Unorthodox Racing 8LB flywheel.. the nice thing about it is the friction material is replacable so i cna hang onto the flywheel for as long as i own a B series. this FW is VERY drivable. daily drive NO problem whatsoever. but i can def feel a differenc ein shifts and hard acceleration
