sulivan whos a trader here selling exedy kits informed me that the flywheel is chromoly steel and weighs a little over 6kg which is what im looking at getting installed in the next few weeks.

exedy customer service is useless. i shot them 3 emails regarding the flywheel and hd cushion button clutch with no reply at all. maybe my questions were too hard to answer...pft

hahahha

yea im just assesing if its worth it... how much it set u back?

im lookin at the sports organic, i mean the fly wheel would be good on teh old r20 wit its poor form down low off boost, but ive herd its not worth the momeny for the verry small increase in performaqnce gains, i dont really drag race,

i am more downhill run old pac style,

cheers

yeah im not expecting much but i figured while im doing the clutch ill do that also. i dont want it too light as id still like to keep some inertia so 6kg is good for me. the shop im going to is getting it trade for me around $600 gst inc. i could be a tight ass order from nengun and save $100bucks but then id have to wait for it. dont mind paying abit more for not waiting and domestic warranty.

They are a solid one-piece forged chrome moly steel and for memory they are about 6.8kg (something around there) very good upgrade if you are looking into track/drag and also for drift.

Im pretty sure that EXEDY only make the one lightened flywheel (no other material) but i can check that out if you like (my brother is an EXEDY dealer) but it wouldn't be until Monday :happy:

(oo\__4Door__/oo) if you are just looking at one of these to help bottom end then i wouldn't bother personally. I take it you have a RB20 from your post correct??? Is it stock or mods (if so what mods) true you will notice a difference with the lightened flywheel but not enough with other upgraded other parts as well. For the money you would be better off installing a set of cam gears to help that bottom end/mid range :(

engine mods are just basic, zorst, fmic, pod wit a box, yea nahh that was i was sayin for the money u can get alot better gains, im goin to get the stocker machined, yea i like the idea of the cams ha ha, it was just wile it was down i thought id investigate, cheers thhough

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
