act flywheel

[4g63awdtalon]

i just bought an act street lite flywheel and wanted to know what everybody thought of then

 

[pneumo]

you're one of the first to get it, from what I've seen. What do you think of it? How much does it weigh? Cost? where did you get it?

I got the exact flywheel when I did my 2600 and that made a really nice,noticeable diff. mine only weighs 12 lbs.... stock is 19..... I got mine frome RRE for 200. its not on there site you have to call and ask.... it was a real easy install b/c we didnt have to wait for a resurfaced one we just threw stuff up there. I highly reccomend it b/c its not to light if you like to drag

FIDANZA > ALL

9LBS I love it, im sure you will love your ACT, even though its not a Fidanza.

i bought it off e-bay for 220 + shipping

Well, I am about to get rid of my Fidanza in favor of ACT. 9lbs is too light for my liking.

Anyone wants a 6 bolt Fidanza with less than 300 miles on it?

BTW how did you get it for $200 from RRE? Their site lists it for $280...

I originally was going to get a lightened stock flywheel but they were out of stock and he told me he had some other flywheels and he told me about the ACT.... asked him how much and he said 200 so I was like OK. I think it was like 249 after nextday shipping. we were wanting to do my clutch really bad..... I dont think it matters but I have a 7bolt!

I also think I was prob. one of the first ones to order it from them.

How does your car drive with this act flywheel and act clutch combination? Does it chatter?rev faster? want to stall?

 

[ellsjer001]

it is really good, the only thing was is that I waited about 350 miles to go race at the track, well when I launched I blew my trans. I dont know if it was clutch or trans but I got it fixed it was great . When I first put it in there was no noise, but when I had the new trans put in, I went to go pick it up at the dealer and the thing was chattering ... so I was alittle pist off butI wasthinking some people said theres rattle.... well I had my wife driveit to follow me to return a friends car and by the time we got there(2.5m) it wasnt chattering anymore..... anyway it revs really nice and grabs like a mother f**ker. Its really good for daily driving and racing b/c you dont lose to many RPMS when shifting, as with 9lb. with this combo though if you dont slowly let off the clutch it will bark the tires at lights and in front of cops!! (I have to get on a military base and stop at gates and accidently did that, they got a little upset) anyway I really recommend this combo it is very nice, and no stalling unless it is my fault from not giving enough gas. if any other question just ask!

Anybody worried about the fact that this flywheel is chromemoly? Wouldnt it have problems with all the heat, just like thte JUN chromemoly flywheels .

 

[4g63awdtalon]

they have holes drilled in the center parts so that might help with the heat disapation

 

[jabraham]

What was the step height on the ACT?

i thought that chromoly steel works better at dessapating heat than the aluminum ones?

[ellsjer001]

mine is FWD... it is worth it

 

[chaye]

The issue with the jun flywheel from what I have heard with heat is not from the material but from how thin the flywheel is.
