About the car sticking in gears and unable to shift quickly... it's probably your release bearing. Mine was doing the same thing; every single gear would stick and some would crunch. Changed the clutch and release bearing, everything is smooth now (except for the obvious vibrations you feel through the gearstick with a lightened flywheel and heavier clutch).

Hey,
just wondering, did you use the jdm DC5R flywheel and a accord euro exedy heavy duty clutch, or did you use theintegra heavy duty clutch. And how much the cheapest you reckon i can get a jdm flywheel for? any suggestions?
Thanks

If you use a DC5R flywheel, you need to get the DC5R exedy clutch. The diameter of the DC5R and Euro's friction area on the flywheel are different so you need matching parts.

As Aaron said about the friction point...

Talk to Yonas at JDMYard about the flywheel/clutch

Sorry to dig up the past, I'm looking at the Exedy Billet flywheel (this one as an example: http://jdmaccessories.com.au/?produc...acing-flywheel ).
Just wondering if I would need to replace the clutch if I was to get the flywheel designed for k24.
Cheers for the help.

I used jdm DC5R flywheel - too light flywheel isn't very friendly ;)

Find out the flywheel friction area diameter. The K24 flywheel is 225mm. The K20 flywheel is 215mm.

Using K20 flywheel will open up more options to clutch kit replacements. If your stuck and on a budget AUDM K20 flywheel will suffice (lighter then EURO). As for clutch, heavy duty or sports organic if in doubt go for OEM replacment (it will be dependent on application you intend to use the car)

Yeah I am on a budget LOL! You guys picked it, so what you're saying is that it's not worth doing the flywheel on it's own?
I just figured the Exedy one would be a direct swap because it's listed as suitable for the k24, if it wasn't you could use just about any flywheel or clutch couldn't you? (Provided the basic sizes worked)

I guess my question really is: What is the best budget lightened flywheel I can get without changing my clutch?

Thanks as always,
Dale.
