I was blessed by the actual Mazda tools to be given to me when I bought my street port. But yea, tightening that thing is a bitch by hand, even with the tools.

Yea, Mazda make a bar to hold it. All it is, is a 1/4" thick piece of steel with 2 holes drilled in it to bolt where the pressure plate would. About 3' long.

Have you seen the cool little flywheel locker that Mazdatrix sells? They take a piece of a flywheel ring gear and weld on two steel tubes. These tubes house two 10mm x 1.25 bolts which screw into the upper bellhousing bolt holes and holds the flywheel for torquing clutch bolts and etc. It's a nice little tool to use.

Ok here is 'the tool'
.................................
Rotary Engineering used to sell them, long ago. It takes less than 40 ft. lbs. of torque to remove the 54mm flywheel nut.
