2) yes its worth it the lighter the flywheel the harder it is to drive normally

I have this ultra lighweight flywheel on my h22a8.
Competition clutch 4.35kg
http://h-tune.co.uk/competition-clutch- ... -flywheel/

Makes the car more responsive and a hoot to drive. Its a little trickier to balance the biting point in traffic and on hills but as long as you have an OEM clutch it should be as close to stock.
I installed an ATR clutch in mine when i upgraded the fluwheel, highly reccomended if you want that stock feel.
Getting an ATR (genuine honda accord type R clutch) a slightly bigger clutch plate and many of us on here has done it

I wouldn't skimp on quality when it comes the gearbox as its a pain in the arse job to haul it all out again if anything fails. or unless your able to do the work yourself

Hope it helps

I've recently had a genuine Accord Type-R clutch fitted (Same place as prelude_h22 posted above) along with a Fidanza 3.6kg flywheel. It's an absolute pleasure to drive now (Did have a Stage 1 clutch on OEM flywheel and it was a nightmare in slow traffic and for balancing). Definitely do it if it's an option. Makes for a really responsive drive yet still has a true factory untinkered feel.

This combo is what I'd go for, a single piece flywheel.
