Which one did you go for in the end?

FYI, I had a Fidanza aluminium flywheel and Exedy stage 1 clutch fitted about 5-6 years ago (40,000 miles) and they are still going strong.

The final decision is to go for the fidanza flywheel and an ATR clutch kit. Ordering it Friday along with new water pump and vtec direct manual tensioner :D :D

I'm running an F1 flywheel on my built engine with an ATR clutch. It's fine but I noticed when I fitted it doesn't look like it had been balanced (although the description says it is). Hasn't given me any problems in use.

About £340 chap. I will get the clutch through my work at cost plus 10% and the flywheel is £170 on tegiwa website :D

What's the advantage to the upgrades if you're running roughly standard power?

its at over £200 :shock: EDIT: just noticed you said "best offer" :lol: :facepalm: will give it a go :D. All H22 respond to reducing the amount of weight it has to rotate. One of the best upgrades is a light weight flywheel. Also allows the motor to spin up faster :D
