So along with my new trans that's coming I'm going to order either gears or a new flywheel. I'm leaning more towards the flywheel since it will be alot cheaper, and still provides a better driving feel than the heavy stock dual mass.

Now I did searching and found a few vids on youtube, streetfire, here, and a couple small writeups. But was wondering if someone could do a detailed review on the flywheel upgrade. What should I expect in terms of throttle response, acceleration, deceleration, track use, and also street use. I've read all about the chatter noises and could care less. Just give me tips on driving with the new flywheel, the break in etc.

 

The flywheel shaved about half a second off my test-and-tune time. (autocross)

Prior to the Clutch/flywheel combo I was consistently hitting mid 31-second runs.

The combo, got me down around 31.0-31.2.

Rev-matching on downshifts is much easier than stock.

 

There is some chatter with mine but it does not get real loud like the Fidanza I had in my other car (Not Z). I have a STG 4 Comp Clutch and it is a little challenging for street use and traffic. I also learned that the flywheel has a dual bolt pattern. I took the RPS broken flywheel and clutch out with not problem. When I went to install the CC pressure plate it would not drop on the same studs and holes. It took me alot of searching till I noticed the extra hole for the studs and bolts. I sucked trying to find out the hard way.

 

Is your plan to keep the OEM clutch?
How many miles on the clutch?

 

Yea I will keep the OEM clutch.The clutch only has 39k miles on it. So it has plenty of life left.
