Its been said over and over but yea, unleash your aggression in a criss cross pattern on that damn flywheel. Its the one time you get to beat on your car with a hammer like you want to.

your flywheel has a taper fit. so it acts kind of like a V. when i changed mine, i used a pully and heat and a hammer. so just keep hitting it and it'll break soon enough.
