Ive got too many engine parts lying around in my garage!!

I have a few flywheels from turbo dsm's. One is from a JDM engine, at least one is from a gst and i have at least one from an awd. All of them are from 2g's.

My problem is, im almost done with my engine rebuild, for my gst and I dont know what flywheel to bolt onto the motor!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I looked at RRE's site, but the pics were not big enough to see an obvious difference.

Thanks!

+1...AWD flywheel is slightly smaller, I ordered a FWD flywheel and recieved a AWD flywheel and installed it W/O checking the part #......Starter spun freely because of the smaller flywheel. Had to take the trans off and swap it out.:notgood:
