buying an act clutch and want to also buy a 12lb lightweight flywheel but i dont know which one to choose from... any suggestions??

 

i've been using the f1racing chromoly 12.5lbs on my n/a tc for over 3 years now, no problems what so ever.

 

fidanza(sp?). I had the f1racing/ebay brand on my integra and it was decent, thats for a honda. lol. My tC will get the best

 

would a 9.5lb fidanza flywheel be too much for a n/a 07 tc?

 

If you're looking into racing where you aren't starting at a dead stop, like auto crossing, then you'd benefit from a 9.5lb flywheel since it'll make it easier to keep RPMs elevated while you're navigating through the course; where if you're drag racing you're going to want to stick with a 12lb so you can launch better (you won't have to rev as high to get momentum in first). A 12lb would probably be a better choice if you DD your car and do stop and go city driving too.

 

Exactly, plus you can resurface a chromoly or steel flywheel in the future if it is needed, Fidanza's cant be resurfaced... wich means more money to spend down the road.

 

thx for that info, btw how are SPEC clutches, stage 2 in particular.. would it be better than a Competition Clutch stage 1?

 

Personally I went with an Exedy stage II cerametallic clutch. I recommend going Exedy because they manufacture a lot of OEM clutch applications in Japan, but do research on some prospective companies and the correct choice will surface. I highly suggest whatever you go with, to use the OEM throw out bearing cause it tends to be superior to aftermarket TOB failure.

 

I almost forgot that this thread is about Flywheels...

I'm using a 12lb Clutch Masters aluminum flywheel. I was seeking a 12lb steel flywheel but came across a sick deal plus the friction surface is steel and is replaceable. Not a bad route.
