Banned. I got OWNED!!!
all looks good...but a 17.5 lb flywheel?? thats not that much of an improvment over stock. for near the same price, you could get a 9.5 lb flywheel that will make a more dramitic difference in the acceleration and feel of the car. getting a 17.5 lb flywheel is sorta a waste, IMO.

Looks good so far, especially the radiator - always overlooked in a FD. The flywheel is too heavy but I guess will help some - nothing noticeable though. I think the HKS dp is mild steel - I'd go stainless steel - it gets pretty hot.

A 17.5 lb. flywheel is good if you plan on doing some drag racing. A lighter one makes it hard to launch. But, a lighter one is great if you plan on doing some roadracing/autoX.

Jeff told me that getting too light of a flywheel isn't necessary...he says getting a 17.5 lbs one is adequate. I'll probably run this set up until I raise a grip of money, then get street port rebuild and XS T04(street) at the same time. Planned it out nicely. Only set back is I think the bushings are going out, some clunking in the back when I let go of the accelerator.
