You need part #11-751A-1029 from Mazdatrix. It is NOT the same as the 12A counterweight. See the link below.

You can also go here to read all about counterweights for rotaries...

You could also use an ACT prolite or streetlite from an FC, 10 and 12lbs respectively, and in the $200 range. Or be a real man and get an OS Giken dual plate kit (flywheel built in)

Now, why would a new guy want to start slapping Hyper around, simply restating exacty what Hyper said in the first place

Did you not understand what he was saying? Or are you simply not housebroken yet?
