Do you have one or know of anyone that does?
I'd be interested! I'm looking for the kind that takes the stock
clutch and pressure plate as I understand there are very lightweight ones
that require a different set up. I don't want that. I just want a stock clutch with a lighter (15lb.?) flywheel.

Thanks,

I know people that have taken the stock flywheel to the machine shop and had it shaved down to 17lbs and run a stock setup with no problems. I plan on buying the lc flywheel and clutch when I install my W58 though

 

I run the LC 9 1/2 lb. & their Pro Street clutch.
Works very well,no problems, 20,000 miles on it now.

 

Where did you pick that up at and how much if you dont mind?

 

just take your stock one to a machine shop and have it shaved ! so much cheaper !

 

Dang! Thanks all. I didn't realize it was possible to machine that much
material off. Is it something that pretty much any auto machine shop should
be capable of doing?

 

If they are a good shop then yes. Plus the money saved you can use on other mods.

 

whats the lightest youve heard of machine shops shaving flywheels for 22r?
i think ive heard 12.5?

 

Thanks, Roach! I'll start calling around.

 

Wow! A stocker shave down to 12.5? Damn!

 

not sure about that, I probably wouldnt go below 14 but I have no knowledge just my gut tells me not too.

 

A safe bet it 16. That still leave plenty of material and life for the flywheel.

 

15lbs on a stocker is all I would feel safe with...

 

Thanks, guys! After a little digging around I found this place that some people on some other boards speak well of. http://www.racetep.com/flywheel.html

I'll get in touch with them.
