I mean I want it to be 100% daily drivable but I still wanna notice the differnce.. should I got w/ the 12 pound one?

from what i read...not from what i know from experience...you can never get a fly wheel that is TOO light...people love the light weight wheel...

False, get one thats too light and your car will die every time you let off the gas and clutch. Mine does, nearly. 7.5 is too light IMO.

Never too light.

I just got a ACT XTSS and Xact Prolight 8.8lbs (ACT doesnt make a 7lb). Fizdeana, Comptech, and Clutchmaster make a 7lb flywheel, though.

 

So the people that dont like it.. why? .. bad in traffic? explain

Bad in traffic, aka STALL CITY. With the ligthened flywheel the revs drop faster so it's easier to stall out.

 

hmmm.. bad in traffic good for quick RPMS.. what has it done for you guy's 1/4 mile times? gosh I wish we had more than an 1/8 around here

 

The lighter your flywheel is the faster your car accelerates. BUt we all know...there is no such thing as a free lunch. You sacrifice your car's torque going with an extremely light flywheel.

I went with a cheap 7.5 lb flywheel and there were hotspots within a month. I didn't like the loss of torque. So now I am planning to go with a 12 lb flywheel for my GSR.

 

12.5 on the way
I figured it'd be lighter than stock by a great amt.. and I was kinda afraid I wouldn't like 7.5 .. so its all good now

 

I got the Ceneter Force Duel Friction with ITR Flywheel.. Works sweet!!

 

12.5 is nice.. I like it I'm happy w/ it and the cluthc is just stronger than stock and still has a stock feel.. I love it ...

Exedy clutch/ Xact flywheel (12.5)

 

I installed the type r flywheel in mine. I'm happy with it. Never had anything lighter though.

 

i wish i would have gone with an itr flywheel on my ls when i installed my act hdss clutch this week.. but i wasn't positive if the itr flywheel would fit and i didn't want to pay to have it machined only to find out that it didn't...

What kind of difference did you notice with the ITR flywheel? I always wondered if it was light enough to make a noticeable improvement over stock.

I'll be running an ITR PP and flywheel with the setup I'm currently building.
