B Series weighs - 7.5lbs

Looking at buyin one for a stock GSR motor.. Is this to light for just street use??

 

well everyone has their own opinions on lightened flywheels. but if you ask anyone that has a lightened flywheel on their own personal car they will almost all tell you that they love it! i have one in my car and i love it and i honestly have no regrets about putting the flywheel on my car seeing as i needed to replace my slipping stock clutch anyways! but i would totally recommend the flywheel i have which is a fidanza 8lb flywheel for my b16! good luck with whatever you choose!!!

 

I have the 7.5lb fidanza in my ITR and it feels like it should've been there from factory

 

7.5 Fidanza here on my B18A and I love it, no drivability issues what so ever.

 

I have an ACT Prolite flywheel, and I LOVE IT!!!!

 

Cool!! thanks guys

 

i like 7lbs flywheels on race cars and 10lbs on street cars. i have always gone that way. 10 lbs on a street car does not wanna stall the car like a 7lbs.

 

I run the ACT prolite on my ride as well with ALMOST no issues .. My issue is something I am sure most of you never run into, since a lot of people rip off thier AC system.. Anyways, the problem I have is when the AC is on, if you are cruising along say 4,000rpms+ and then push in the clutch to come to a stop, the engine will die. With the AC on, it spins down VERY quickly. I would say approx 2,000rpms a second. Anyways, other then that, I like it alot.

 

^^ yeah that may happen with a really light flywheel...

just head into the stop while still in gear and pull it out at a lower rpm

11lb. on my d15b was great
8lb. on my gsr..... (i'll let you know this weekend)

 

ACT prolite in my stock GSR. it does die alot faster which sucks cause it looks like you cant drive stick, but the real test will come when i've met the 500 mile break in period

Yeah! let me know i just ordered one

 

I have exedy lightened fly...with crower stg 2 cams..car idled really low, and when i would get on it, and lets say get off it and put clutch in, it would die...so i just turned up the idle a tish and walla..every thing is perfect

I love the flywheel never go back to heavy *** 20lber this is on a b18 btw

 

Would the lightened flywheel hurt the tranny at all??

 

nope

 

I love my spoon flywheel, except the ac problem....works fine when cruising...i had been trying to figure out what the problem with it was, the other day i thought of the flywheel
