If you have a manual transmission there is currently no counter balance on your flywheel. Whenever you go to a lighter flywheel most company's require you to install a counter weight that normally comes an automatic FD flywheel/flexplate. You can simply pick up the screws from the mazda dealer just request the screws for the counterbalance weight of an auto. FD and you should be ok. If your doing the clutch yourself make sure you check the clutch fork for cracks since they tend to break. You would hate to put everything back together to realize you have to go back in to replace the fork.

 

Check to make sure the flywheel package you are getting don't already come with screws. My act flywheel came with the screws you need.

 

Well its saying that it doesn't come w/ the screws but where di you get your clutch from?

 

Got mine at www.turboimport.com ; bought the flywheel and counterweight.

 

How about this Flywheel? I don't want to deal w/ the couterweight issue

Do i still need a counterweight for this flywheel is i decide to get this one?

 

Your original flywheel actually has the counterweight built into the flywheel (manual transmission). You need that counter weight. If you get an aftermarket flywheel, you still need to use a counter weight. Due to the fact that the aftermarket flywheel doesn't have that counter weight built into it.

Please double check my facts. I believe that there are two counter weights one at the front of your shaft and one at the rear (by the flywheel or in the flywheel as on the OEM).

 

Well if i get the first flywheel i posted that comes w/ the counter weight all i need is the screws from Mazda?

 

Sorry that's what I meant to say. No bolt on counterbalance on manual trans. My bad.
That sounds about right. Other wise like the other guy said his ACT flywheel came with everything he needed to installl which is the second link you posted for the flywheel.
