Stupid ? - stock flywheel weight 98-02 Accord
I recently picked up a 2001 Accord LX 5 speed - F23A1 - after wrapping my 95 Civic around an 18 wheeler.
I can already tell the flywheel is heavy as hell - it takes forever to wind down and I can't find anything causing it to hold RPMs (no vacuum dashpot or anything like my Integra had). It takes long enough that it's difficult to rev match (which I've always done to minimize wear on the clutch, even on upshifts).
Any idea of the weight of the stock flywheel? At 82k, I figure I'll be looking for a new clutch sooner than later, and I want to go with one that's a little lighter than stock. Keep in mind, this will ALWAYS be a daily driver - the most I plan to do is a lightened flywheel, tint, slight drop, some OEM Honda alloys, and the typical name brand I/H/E. Already know what I want to do with everything except the flywheel, since I can't find the stock weight.
Help?
