Ok so what is said about flywheels? Cause I have a new one of them too

[R33S2]

Yes tell all, I didnt realise what a monster you are building Shane, what sort of use are you planning for?

[shanef]

depends on what u want to use it for really decides what you should use

give you an example...the bresiani (spelling) could not break or come close to the record with a lightened (4.Xkg flywheel) whereas when jim sent him back a stock one, he ran the record and broke it by a fair bit. thats because he couldnt get it off the line and was having trouble holding boost, boost was dropping of between gears etc.

also, jim and dan have seen more warped lightened flywheels than stocko's so that also say somthing for them.

jim recommends that if the car is for out and out track racing, go for a very light flywheel (4.Xkg) thats because u want excellent throttle control mid corner, out of the corner etc, also u dont have the factor of dropping off boost because the revs are always high, also lightens the drivetrain up...drags he says to use a stock weight or slightly thinned stock flywheel, for the reasons like the bresciani example

theres more, but that's all i remember for now

[Bunta]

Yep makes sense

Hmm I wonder waht the flywheel in that assembly I got weighs? I know the whole thing is 16kg

didnt you terry? well now u do

i'm not entirely sure yet, at first i was all for a track spec car, but now i'm leaning towards drag spec because there is actually prize money on offer. basically i'll have to make up my mind before i get the new turbo & suspension setup. for now i've got a set of R34 v-spec turbo's, and i'll do a fair bit of drag and circuit work to help me decide.

see you wouldnt have that drama if you had a single plate, because i think u'll find u cant change the flywheel caus its "all in one", if you know what i mean

16kg's, i'd say it's a light one, my guess would be between 4-6kg's?

yeah I reckon 6 or so...cause the cover isnt that heavy...but the carriers and plates look pretty heavy!

Thats all good but because my car wasnt built for straight lines

[shanef]

yeh nice, should suit you down to a tee

that's another thing i remember jim saying what was wrong with the twins, the cover on some of them is very thin and they heat up very quickly and that inturn induces premature clutch slippage, he did mention brands, but i just can't remember

Ahhh I see!

Well the 320atwkw GTR couldnt slip mine so I hope I am ok

Mine is pressed steel, But I imagine alot ot he alloy ones youe heat up heaps!

Actually the Os website mentions that! Thiers has some sort of ventilations system that not all have

[Bunta]

Home time! See you later

[shanef]

Yeah something like that, and over kill

Did you just get a single plate shane? Thats what I have he seemed to think it should hold 800fly wheel hp fairly easy. If you got the same sort of thing it should do yours easy
