I am going to replace the 901 with a Suby trans soon and was wondering about the flywheel weight. I called KEP and they didn't know how much theirs weighed, or the weight of the stock flywheel. They use the, that looks good method. This car is a DD so don't want to pull it out just yet. Their kit works good. I don't know the difference to anything else so maybe it is heavy? I have always felt the WRX revs up slow, off the bottom, compared to my stock 2.0 FI type 4. Does anyone know the weight of the KEP flywheel compared to the stock 02 WRX?

Ok Just weighed everything, but keep in mind that my scale isn't all that accurate:
Flywheel: 12.6 lbs (This is a lightweight one!) Clutch disc: 3.4 lbs Pressure plate: 11.1 lbs Total: 27.1 lbs I think I read somewhere that the stock flywheel weight for the '02 WRX is something like 22 lbs. So, if you keep everything stock just add 10 Lbs to the total weight above. I figured I'd throw in a gratuitous picture of my shiny new flywheel below. Got the bolts today from the dealer and will be getting everything installed and torqued down tomorrow! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)  |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Thanks, 22# sounds like one of the numbers I saw earlier today. My biggest question is the KEP Flywheel. There is no telling what it's weight is and that is all I have to reference. My thought is a lighter car can go a little lighter than stock but I don't want to over shoot buy too far. Maybe I should look for 18#... unless that is what I have now. Then your 12.6 is looking good (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) PS, nice photo |
