ok so so 7afe lightweights are limited to findeza or clutchmasters
but 400$ for a flywheel is gay

so if i do machine my stock one i'm not lookin to go crazy amount shaved off....
if the stock weight is like 20
would 10-12lbs be ok?
or depends on machine shop?

$400 is gay? Wonder how much it'll cost to repair a car whose flywheel has broken up at high rpm. rolleyes.gif

Don't take this the wrong way, but you've come here asking for advice and it's been given. Do it properly. Buy a custom made wheel. Far too many risks assosciated with maching a flywheel down. Especially if you want to halve its weight!
