Hi

i have a r34 gtt factory manual car. Pull clutch setup. I'm changing the clutch and want to get the fly skimmed but want the car off the road for only a few hours so I want to get a spare flywheel and skim it in prep

 

are all rb25 flywheels the same ? Or do I need a neo specific one

and is there any recommended ones I could buy off the shelf that are lightened or just leave it standard?

thanks

Same same.

Yes, you can buy lightened flywheels off the shelf.  Most clutch vendors can source the Exedy ones.  There are others.

Unless you're taking it to the track competitively there's very little benefit from a really light flywheel. So don't waste your time trying to get a 4kg one or anything like that.  The stocker is ~9 kg and the Exedy and similar ones are ~7 kg.  They will do.

But otherwise, just get a 2nd hand stocker and skim it.  Note that skimming has nothing to do with lightening, and you do not want to use a stock flywheel that has been "lightened".

Ye i I don't intend to lighten the standard one. But I just want one pre skimmed for the new clutch to save having to leave mine into a machine shop for a day or 2 meaning the car is off the road longer :)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
