Default Opinions needed: Are Fidanza or Clutchmasters flywheels any good.

For someone on a tight budget that cannot afford the nice stuff (TODA, JUN, Spoon etc) what are your opinions on the Fidanza or Clutchmasters product? Thank you in advance.

So far so good w/ my Fidanza, but I have nothing other than stock to compare it to.

Just because a product isn't high-priced or JDM doesn't mean that it isn't "nice". They're very light, resonably priced, and have no starter issues. My brother has had zero complaints or problems with his CM.

FYI - Clutchmasters and Fidanza are made by the same company. I think they're a good product - especially if you get a good deal on one.

i have nothing but positive things to say. Hills are a little trickier, but that could be due to my 6 puck too.

The comptech at 299 is a steal though compared to what it used to be. But I wonder if there is anything that makes the comptech better than fidanza/cm.

Do I have to be at the expo to get this price? What's the weight for Comptech FW for ITR?

I just picked up a ACT 8.8 Lb pro lite for $222 shipped. Here were my choices and reasoning:

ACT-chromoly, lite, and cheap $222
Clutchmasters-aluminum, fear of warping, not too expensive
Spoon- 50% for the people using them have starter teeth issuses $340
TODA-nice, chromoly, pricy $450, no starter teeth issues
Comptech- the aluminum might warp, the chomoly is nice but pricy $400+
JUN- no ****** way, everyone has starter teeth issues.
Fidanza - aluminum might warp, price not bad
Exedy- Don' t know anyone using them, except Subaru guys

HEre's a link for more info

Wow, that's really high. $250 shipped is a good price, but hard to find. I see them for $260-270 shipped fairly regularly.

At one point, $250 shipped was the everyday price at Import Auto Salvage. I'm not sure if it still is or not.


-- shameless plug alert --

I have one with around 200 miles on it that I'm selling. Pictures here:
