had a job done by a very reputable supplier - who copied my psd lightened one.
they are approx same weight/place removed as the psd too (which many people have used on their car for 1000s of miles). Not too light to become useless/liable to shatter - but light enough to ensure your engine revs freeer and engine brakes easier.
these are £69 each
can courier for £10.
Will get pics asap
Pete
what do these do? any increase of power? or just make it rev like a motorbike?
jack
less rotating mass so engine spins up quicker and slows down quicker - so maybe not more bhp, but potentially better up and down gears, faster acceleration i suppose.
I have been looking into this and this sounds good.
What would the turn around time be if i was to send mine in to get done? If there weren't any available.
bout a fortnight mate
i have 3 done at the moment.
Pete
Does that price include grinding down the face for a nice flat surface again with no grooves made by the clutch or would that be extra ??
^ same question from me please, as am going from a 190 to 200mm clutch soon. Especially as yourself and Rae had a problem with this iirc?
how do they balance the flywheels?
they are checked for lips - and if they have them the machine is faced down to remove the lip, to ensure a good surface.
They are balanced as stock ones are - by taking material off on the outer ring in the right places- they look like little round holes.
can i just buy one outright for 89 quid please? if there are some available
cheers
ross
sure - pm'd
can you grab a pic i right want to see, like a before and after would be cool!
i'll try to remember!
