Flywheels Abound...

There seems to be a couple of them out for our cars right now.

1. Unorthodox Racing Ultra L Aluminum Flywheel (Click Me)
- 8 pounds
- Description
- Price: $489.00 + 5% off

2. Clutch Masters (Click Me)
- 7 pounds
- This is why I think it fits.: "unorthodox as well as Clutch masters make light flywheels.... the CM Flywheel is the same as a 92-95 civic... go figure. after extensive testing of my car with the stock flywheel and getting the CM's flywheel put in i got an average of .22 sec in the 1/4that was WITH Nitrous.... so without the juice i dont think it would be as much. the car floats up to the redline really quick with the lighter flywheel in also. i noticed a big difference in top end like on the freeway going from 60-80 was a lot quicker."
- Part number: FW-702-AL
- Best price is $299: Click Me

3. ACT (Click Me)
- ProLite part number: 600115
- ProLite weight: 8.4 pounds
- ProLite price: $219.95 (Click Me
- StreetLite part number: 600120
- StreetLite weight: 11.9 pounds
- StreetLite price: $245.95 (Click Me
- I think these may be for our cars as well, as it says no the ACT website: "Civic/CRX 90-01 SOHC"? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

#2 is interesting if it really fits in our cars. Kinda light though. What do you think about #3? Typo? Who has an aftermarket flywheel?

RedDragon333 will become famous soon enough
i did a little research into this area a while back and found too many cons and not enough pros to do this mod on my Civic as nice as it might sound. The idea of having to rev higher even for a regular start from stop i can deal but he fact that you have to worry too much with a small if any gain in performance doesnt sound worth the price

If i wasnt getting an RSX-S engien into my car, i would for sure get a flywheel. Flywheels will take a few tenths off of your 1/4 time.
