Flywheel Exedy or VALEO
I use SouthBend stage 1 daily kit + Exedy flywheel on my boosted (350whp) build. Love it and have no complaints.
Pros: Love it, no complaints
I got the Exedy clutch and bought the lightweight Exedy flywheel becasue the stock wasn't in stock, plus I dont mind trying a bit of a lighter flywheel for fun. Off rock auto.
Pros: lighter flywheel for fun
I've read lots of reviews about how the flywheel chatters horribly. I never noticed it on this car, it's very quiet, though I do have OEM mounts. I was surprised to find it wasn't a DMF. Just something to consider
Pros: very quiet, OEM mounts
Cons: flywheel chatters horribly
Valeo has a single mass flywheel kit that's within factory specs and should be right around $500 usd
Pros: within factory specs
I got one like this for my 6-speed. Rockauto Valeo single mass FW
I have the Exedy stage one clutch and flywheel combo. My old clutch began slipping (130k miles) and I’m super happy with the lightweight flywheel. It does has transmission chatter which isn’t terrible but noticeable. It is a lot quicker and the clutch grabs hard with a little bit of a stiffer petal. If it’s hard to shift in certain gears think about adjusting the CMC. The Exedy oem clutch is also really good. IMO flywheel is very much worth it if you don’t mind some cabin noise.
Pros: quicker, hard grab, worth it
Cons: transmission chatter, cabin noise
Mileage: 130000 km
I like exedy and I wouldn\u2019t run an XTD clutch but I figured the flywheel would be fine.
Pros: flywheel is fine
Cons: wouldn't run XTD clutch
Vehicle:
Lexus
While I have a 6 speed, I just replaced the clutch in my car. I went with the single mass flywheel. There is no chatter. The pedal is extremely light and very easy to engage. I had thought about reusing the original flywheel and I'm glad I ordered the single mass because my flywheel had a lot of extra play in it when it was removed and needed to be replaced.
Pros: pedal extremely light, easy engage
Cons: flywheel had extra play
I have this flywheel, there is no chatter when driving the car for only 30min but when taking a long trip and everything heats up it does chatter unfortunately...
Pros: no chatter short trips
Cons: chatter on long trips
Just thought Id stop by and update people about this question for any1 potentially considering this option. All I have to say is that unless it's a track car, do not go with any sort of single mass flywheel conversion, especially this one. If it originally had a dmf setup then replace it with a dmf setup. At idle there is an extremely annoying slight rattle/knock unless you press the clutch pedal in (separate trans from engine). It's definitely louder with ac turned on, also when shifting in certain gears at certain speeds,when letting off the clutch pedal, you will experience some grinding due to the inability to absorb the shock and pulses.
Cons: annoying rattle/knock, grinding
