i've been searching around for a little bit tonight... i'm tossing up whether to get a lightweight flywheel for my y8 and i was wondering what an ideal weight for daily driving would be?
i know i'll probably get flamed for not searching properly but... theres almost 1500 posts in this thread alone plus the rest of the interwebz

any help would be great
nah its better you asked
check out gripforce member on ebay - he sells a great range of clutch and flywheel packages
the common two are the 10lbs exedy flywheel and the 7lbs fidanza one
i wouldnt go any lighter than 10lbs for daily driving - i have it on my D15b7 and it does suck a little in carparks or 1st gear driving
after 1st gear its amazing tho - one of the best mods i have done to the car so far
7lbs would be great for track - but would be bloody terrible for daily driving
Lighten flywheel should be the least concern on a daily imo.... theres a reason why its at that weight and wheel mass from the factory.... the less wheel mass, the less energy the flywheel can store and release, makes sense doesnt it... id say stick to oem flywheel unless u plan on doin more N/A mods later down the track
you will loose a small amount of low end torque - but the engine builds revs much quicker to get up into power band earlier
so personally i think its worth the change

well considering u actually have one, its more than enough proof to get one lol, in theory though from what ive been taught, never touch lighted flywheel unless using for competition
