Exedy is excellent. If you went through a clutch in 3000 miles you had better budget for a drivetrain replacement but my hats off to you for driving it like you stole it

Does anyone know the weight of the Exedy flywheel? This data seems very hard to find.....

thanks

thanks, Yellow Streak, I scoured their site and found almost nothing in terms of technical data, I will look again, though, to make sure I didn't miss anything......

I have never heard a bad thing about exedy clutches, which make me very interested and I think the price is pretty good considering it comes with a flywheel, except I'm really stuck on that Toda flywheel.....

EDIT - yeah, I tried their site in two different browsers and it's pretty wacky.... at least they have a picture of the flywheel, it *looks* good.... I'll contact them through the site and see what they say, if that doesn't work I'll shoot you a PM.... thanks

YELLOWSTREAK- I can weigh my Exedy setup as it is still sitting in the garage awaiting the install. Do I need a special throw out bearing for the install or should I at least get a new stock one from Honda?

This setup can be purchased from David @R&Dmotorsports for a reasonable price for what you get.

I will weigh the flywheel and clutch after dinner. Phil

phil - you rock!

BTW- I think 1200 for this setup is a little more than most other clutch setups, but it seems like it's worth it. The least I've seen for a combo that includes a flywheel was around 900.... so it's not so bad....

I didn't seperate the one piece unit, but as a WHOLE unit it weighs 21.5 lbs. I didn't know if this unit can be easily seperated, if it can be, I can weigh them seperately. Let me know. It is now moved under my bed-one step closer to install! First project is I missed a shift for a split second and blew the belt off the S/C, I guess when they say adjust at 250-400 miles they mean it! I had 392 on it and was going to get it adjusted the next day!

YS- I will probably less miles by the time I change mine out. I guess I should have no problems with my orig. bearing. Are you loving the clutch? Any noises or anything? Thanks Phil
