Hey guys, I have a quick question for anyone here. It's regarding a flywheel for my Mr2, I need a high performance flywheel, that will fit right in and wont have a problem with my engine. It's a 1987 Mr2. I was also thinking of getting a racing clutch for it but I also having problems with that.

ANy help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

What do you think about this little upgrade? = http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...ch.asp&x=0&y=0

A lightened flywheel will help you rev up faster and get more power to the ground. approx. 2.7hp to the ground for every lb. taken off your crank. not more HP gain, just transfering energy from reducing rotational mass of your crankshaft to the ground.
adding stage 2 or 3 clutch without adding power will gain you nothing. if you're needing a new clutch anyway, and plan on modding your engine later on, then it wouldn't be a bad idea to get it put in while you've got it taken apart. then it will already be in place when the engine mods are made.

You cant go wrong with TRDs flywheels. Ive got one in my 86 and i have never had a problem. Youre pretty much gauranteed that it will fit too. Shifts so fast... deffinitly worth the money!

Really? TRD flywheel you say? Can you give me the link on where to buy one myself?

I found out I have to combine the trd clutch and cover, in order to use it with the fly wheel..... Is that true? I can't seem to find the flywheel anywhere though. Anyone know where?

Thanks
