Default motor work

so unfortunatly my clutch decided it was time to go. 85k on the odo, and many of those were full of abuse and burnouts. So it was time for a new one. Anyone who knows about this knows it is not cheap because they have to drop the whole subframe and steering rack to remove the transmission. Anyways while it was out i had Teddy from Mavrik Motorsports in Beuna Park (the shop that did the repair) lighten the stock flywheel. Since it was neccesary to have the flywheel resurfaced and balanced anyway i said what the hell. They charged me 150 i think, plus the 50 for resurfacing. 1.5 pounds was taken out of the stock flywheel, and let me tell you the rpms spin up way faster from 3000 rpm to redline. This was far cheaper than the fidanza lightened flywheel, which retails for like 400. I am completely happy with the results, it was worth every penny. Ill get the stock and lightened weights and put them up to compare to the fidanza unit.
