Will a 8.8lb flywheel hurt my times at the track. Its a 2nd gen b16 on gsr tranny.

 

No, it will help. Also, what track is this, a drag strip?

 

yeah a drag strip and my best time with stock flywheel 14.6.

 

I wouldn't expect much of a change, but it won't hurt either.

 

I'm not a fan of lightened flywheels in all motors at the drags. I think I'll stick with a stock one as I think it helps the car get out of the hole....

 

I've never cared for the "you need stored inertia from a heavier flywheel to take off theory", but I won't start another debate on the subject either. I believe there are a few instances when light flywheels don't make sense, like if you have almost no power(under 100 ponies), or if you have massive power, like the nitro burning funny car dragsters, for almost every other application, a lighter rotating assembly is simply more efficient.

 

I got over a 100hp to the wheels and its a chromoly flywheel not any of that factory lightened bullshit.

 

Alum is fine. I use a Fidanza. The strength of the chromoly simply is not necessary for a flywheel, and god save the queen if that thing shatters at high RPMs.

 

Its an xact flywheel by act i dont think it will shatter.

 

10lbs UR Ultra L flywheel on my 95 EX Accord, works great, very good improvement over stock. Your 8.8lbs should only be better.

 

you can get at http://www.nipponpower.com for $250 or less I think?

 

That's what new flywheel I'm running right now. I'm still breaking in the clutch but the FW is great. Every gear is more reponsive. The Integra should have come from the factory with this flywheel weight. I don't have any regrets (well, maybe one - should have gone lighter )

 

You mean like a Fidanza fly?

 

Maybe the xACT 8.8 pound flywheel. I don't know if I could have afforded the Fidanza fw. Do you like the FW that light? I was too scared to go too light. Well, now that I have driven it, I wish I wouldn't have been scared. Plus, my dad helped me with the install and he was pissed that I went down to 12.5. He tought that was too light.

 

It was $290 shipped, not exactly a fortune. The lighter the better. I forget exactly what it was but it seems like it was lighter than it was supposed to be when I got it. Cheap scale perhaps it was at fault. 7.6lbs or something of the sort.

 

290 shipped isn't bad at all. I think my FW was 240 shipped free.

 

I got mine from clutchcity online 250 and if i dont shift its like the car just gets up. What the number of miles i need to break in my clutch i have 776 that is street and highway miles combined. Is my clutch broken in where i can go to the track its an exedy full face organic racing clutch.

 

Organic clutch discs don't have long break-ins. Kevlar does. If it doesn't work right yet, there may well be something amiss.

 

Feels good a little better than stock. Hey timonex can a final drive out a type r work in a gsr tranny

 

Yep. I believe it's the JDM final drive people scavenge. I've not done this myself, though I'm considering a Type R LSD whilst my tranny is out.

 

COol how much for the lsd

 

exedy recommends 500 street miles for the organic discs, so figure out how much of that 776 is street. you're probably ok as long as it wasnt mostly all highway.

 

You can usually pick one up for $250ish, if you're patient and look around. Allot cheaper option than Quaiffe or Kaaz, though not as effective.

 

about half of it is street.

 

Had my stock one machined down to 12.5 lbs... can't afford one of those expensive aftermarket ones. My brother has the same thing and it revs a little faster, more fun to drive
