so there no point put the 1.3 flywheel on my 1.0 liter then frank i just got think being from a big engine the 1.3 flywheel mit be abit ligter or somethink ?

 

[frank]

no, you would have to change the clutch, g/gox, shafts etc
you could get yours lightened tho eh, 3.5kg works well on a 1.0, (and 4kg on a 1.3)

 

[Tom 1.0]

know where you can get these lightened fly wheels frank?

i know JUN do them but they cost way too much...

 

[Alienfish360]

It's heavier, but can use a bigger clutch and the 1.3 gearbox.

 

[Alienfish360]

Autosprint will lighten them for around £60

 

[Tom 1.0]

how does a light fly wheel help the car then peeps and would putting one on my 1.4 be a good idea

your 8+kg ( with most of the weight on the outer edge) CGA flywheel on left takes a lot of hp to spin from 1k to full chat kenny, my sub 4kg one makes the throttle a lot more responsive (more effective in the lower gears)
there,s a limit to what you can safely take off a coilpack f/w tho :doh:

[Tom 1.0]

your the guy to ask while your online

Frank, would i be able to make a big difference by going down to 3.5kg with my 1.0?

 

[pollyp]

will its either we find somebody to make them or we have to pay like £350+ for a JUN one....

round about, and then customs charges ya up to £100

costed bout as much as the car itself

first time i started it i wondered to myself if i had just put a motorcycle engine in :laugh:

the ultra-light jun flywheel revs real fast, great for heal & toe, snappy gear changes and also more of the engines power capacity is available to drive the car.

setting off in traffic was a little tricky but soon got use to it.

wasn't too sure about getting the oem flywheel machine lightened cos i didn't fancy the risk of having bits of flywheel flying into the cabin when it fails.

its not much bang-per-buck if you have to pay a garage to drop the g/box to fit one really tom...... but if you diy fit, or if your clutch needs changing, then its well worth it

 

[Tom 1.0]

so to fit it,

i have to remove the gear box / clutch to fit it?

or i need to relocate the whole system?

i'm confused now lol

yes tom, the clutch bolts onto the f/w
so, you have to lower the g/box, remove the clutch then f/w

 

[Tom 1.0]

oh ok,

but once its on i put it all back in the original place?

god i'm stupid lol

 

[frank]

yeh, you take the heavy f/w off the engine, bolt the lighter one on, then replace the clutch and g/box

 

[Tom 1.0]

cool,

i get you,

well i might wait until i have a new clutch to fit then,

any particular that i should try?

 

[frank]

cool,


any particular that i should try?

as-in what make of clutch tom ?

 

[Tom 1.0]

yeah lol

sorry frank, bit tired today

 

[frank]

yeah lol

sorry frank, bit tired today

np tom, i rate my 1/2 worn luk/nissan one very highly, my 1/3 worn exedy one slipped at around 95 hp

 

[Tom 1.0]

hmmm well i just discovered i only have £35 in my account lol

my renewal is £870 at the end of the month...


lol

well i dont think i will be reaching quite that high power, i just want one that is strong and has a nice meaty feel to it,

mine feels a bit spoungy

 

[k6pfs]

[Low Rider]

I saw that last week but I run a Helix clutch, so hence didn't bid. I may be interested in one in the future depending on how the next engine performs.
