I'm thinking about lightening my stock gsr 18 lb flywheel to around 12.5-13lbs. Is this a good idea and would it work?

 

i posted the same question about a month ago and that can be debatable. Keep in mind the stock flywheel wasnt designed to be that light originally but i say their shouldnt be a problem as long as your engine is balanced with the lightned flywheel.

i have heard of it working just fine countless times but some people will tell you its a bad idea.

bump

 

There's nothing wrong with doing it, but for just a bit more you can get a flywheel that weighs much less.

 

so the lighter the better then is what your saying, i mean i know it depends on the app but lets say for an all motor set up. lighter the better?

 

i' have heard of lightend stock flywheels tend to fly apart in a million peices going through the car and in the passenger seat etc etc.

too big of a risk to save about $100

 

well, i wont be risking it.. ive heard too many good things about the fidanza flywheels not to get one and their not too expiensive.

fidanza 7.5 pound here i come
