[dorsetsaxo]

a friend of my brother in law did this professionally for me it now weighs 4.3kg not sure what it weigh'd before but it perfectly in safe limits as its been machined out side the clutch plate and as im needing new clutch it couldnt have come at a better time

is it balanced aswell? only problem you have now is finding a clutch plate which fits that indent in the face

[JamesR]

How much did he charge? Or was it free?

I have always wanted a lightened AND balenced flywheel, but there too expenisve for not much of a gain :n:

Really? How much more can be taken off? Is he reputable?

[dorsetsaxo]

yeah thats the back :wall::wall::wall::wall::wall:doh the clutch face is other side

[Sparco_Tom]

well i know a kg is safe so thats all i ask for and i like the car to remain driveable on the road.

Thatch at ems in buckinghamshire he is very very good used to work for prodrive as an engineer

[JamesR]

If he worked for Prodrive, then he must be reputable, and a genius lol

Also, its just faster acceleration it gives isnt it? Dont you lose top end? Not really good on a saxo :n:
