Hi all, I am looking to get rid of my super light flywheel and get back to stock weight, but I have had my front and rear counterweights on my RE balanced already. I can't just put the stock flywheel back on because the balance will be off. Does anybody know of a stock or more near stock flywheel that will accept the rear automatic counterweight?

The stock flywheel is about 27 lbs. for s4 and 23 lbs. for s5 (and includes the rear counterweight). My current flywheel is 8 lbs., so about 12 lbs. with the counterweight. Would be nice to find a flywheel that is about 18-20 lbs before I add the counter weight. If I can't find one that is that heavy, what is the heaviest one out there?

If anybody knows where I could find one, that would be great.

Thank you,

(Update: Woops, looks like I was blind. I think I will get the racing beat 17 lb steel one, seems about perfect. Should help make things a little more smooth. )

 

The feel of the flywheel is related to inertia, not static weight.

Is your flywheel for an NA car? If so please drop me a line if you want to sell it.

 

Racing beat sells a 17lb. " lightweight steel" flywheel.

 

Why are you going back to stock? I love my superlight one. Except in stop and go traffic.

 

the act flywheel isn't very light, i do have one i'd love to get rid of

 

No, this if for my turbo RE.

Yes, blah blah, I know about the inertia blah blah.

I am going back to stock because it is making the car a little annoying to drive. The idle is hard to set steady, (even on street port), and when I shift there is no inertia. Because my car is down, I have been driving my NA-T with stock flywheel. When you shift, and let go of the clutch the car jumps forward. My 312 rwhp RE didn't do that, and I assume because of the flywheel.

(Yes, random I said I was going to get that one above hehe.)

Thanks.

 

...so what exactly are you looking for? A stock NA flywheel? A stock turbo flywheel? I have both. Not sure if I want to part w the NA one though... Located in Everett WA.

 

I thought the racing beat one has a built in counter weight?

Though I am only judging this by the fact they carry a S4 and S5 version of the lightweight steel.

From what i understand you want to counteract the negative driveability issues of a big bridgeport RE with a stock or heavier flywheel. correct?
