I'm keeping my stock fly when I get my clutch installed. I might now some people that can put it in for me.. How do I resurface it. Can I do it myself or must I take it to a shop? If I have to have shop equipment... then... Maybe... I will buy a Type R fly.. or... I might just go to a shop and install it there so they can resurface it.

 

shop will have to do it............i think mine cost like $50 CDN = 32 USD

 

damn. Does anybody know of a place to buy a Type R flywheel??

 

napa resurfaces for like 20 bucks.

 

check type R forum

 

i would try the dealer... sometimes prices arent to bad although im sure someone with a clutch in their R surely has one laying around

 

just hit up a few classified boards.. i see em for sale from time to time.

 

Type R flywheel is the SAME as all the other B series flywheels. Just get one from a yard and have it resurfaced.

ok so with a lightened flywheel it is supposed to make you rev faster right? Of course you always have to give up something the gain something. Im wondering what are the negatives of lightened flywheels? How light can I go with a turbo hopefully running 10 psi in the future?

 

Going into boost faster also means.. going OUT of boost quicker since revs drop faster too. Less inertia will slow that flywheel down quickly.

That's why i was looking into Type R flywheels, I was told they are about 15-16lbs compared to the 19lbs or someting that are on teh Civic 99 Si's. Thought it might be nice.
