I heard bad things about aluminum, but I am not too sure how true it is. I have heard that it can warp. anyway, I am looking for something prob 9-12lbs I still have to drive my car on the streets what would you guys suggest? The clutchmaster flywheel is on groupbuycenter.com for 280 shipped, but I dont know how bad/good aluminum is.

 

Aluminum will warp if u abuse it enough. If 12lbs is what ur looking for then why not just lighten and balance the factory flywheel to 12lbs? Any lighter than that and I'd recommend the Toda Chromoly flywheel.

 

toda is what ill be going too, my lightened stoc one is a bit heavy for my taste

 

I was thinking 12lbs at most... prefably 10lbs or so.

 

I've been abusing my Aluminum Unorthodox racing flywheel for a while now... it's about the only thing that hasn't broken yet.

For those who don't know me, ask around about how I drive my car.

 

where can I get the Toda flywheel from, and how much $ is it?? they dont list it on their webpage. I didn't think toda made anything for ludes.

 

ehhehe, yup we are equally insane on dry clear days

 

Its not specifically for the lude, its for the S2000, it will fit the accord and lude.

 

Fidanza is 8lbs if you want to go to the extreme... I'll inform you of it's effects tomorrow when I get my car back...

 

i'll be going with the clutchmasters, i have heard nothing but good thing about them and you just cant beat that price!

 

I hear lightened stock flywheels *can* shatter. That certainly seems feasible since much of the flywheel's material is removed. If that's the case, you'd definitely want an aluminum (or whatever) aftermarket one.
I actually have a lightened stock flywheel on my old motor and will be temporarily putting it on my new one until I can afford a new flywheel/clutch/Quaife.

 

Dave,
Are you gonna enter your car into the ECHC?

 

Yeah, sure. A few years from now when I can keep it on course and get my NASA license, and then get whooped by H1 B20 VTEC ITR/Civic hybrids.
How about you?

 

howd you go about lightening a stock flywheel?
sorry still a newbie lol

 

See Dave, now you know why I dont have a H22, jk
I joined the group buy for the CM flywheel too

 

i have the fidanza flywheel, bout 8lbs, and i love it. no problems yet. had it for about 6k miles and i ride the **** out of it

 

I just got a email from the store hosting the GB, they said they will contact me IF they get more flywheels in stock, that sucks, you guys know anywhere else to get one for near that price $280?

 

got my fidanza for 300. bout the same price as the CM. its a bit lighter thatn the CM, but i like it a lot. revs up super fast.
