Single flywheel + VR6 Clutch conversion?

[LazyLunatic]

dont know if its in the other thread, but if you got an old 02a flywheel, the dealership will take it in and give you a discount on a new one. I got ahold of a f**ked flywheel (someone tried to machine it to lighten it ) and I got a new one for under £100.

oh and i think the discount was around £20-30.

you can pick up used 02a flywheels off here and other forums cheap though.

VR6 clutch kit with G60 flywheel is one of the best upgrades you can do to your vehicle. Best advantage of SMF over DMF is getting rid of the unwanted vibrations. You will also pick up durability and the kit will last longer. It is also good for up to 300ft/lbs (US) and 300hp so this is perfect for cars with light to medium power upgrades. Just be careful, because the g60 flywheel is also available in lightweight (14.25lbs), although this will make the car rev faster and more responsive, it might make chatter when clutch is disengaged.

Thats a good bit of information as ive been looking around and most places say the kit is on good for 250bhp.

Would be good to get feedback if people are running more bhp on a similar kit and if there having any problems

Ok so what are the pro's and cons of the 14lb g60 wheel and how do you differentiate between them (part numbers?). I got a child on the way so performance is not on the high end but I would like it, will it cause too much discomfort etc... Plus I am not sure if this golf will end up being a long term project or not yet (as I am thinking maybe getting a new car and keeping golf, or heading for a 6j chassis ibiza 1.8t for a project), so I'd like to consider pro's and con's before heading into it.

Sorry just a bit of a hijack, has anyone or knows anyone that has fitted the luk clutch and abf flywheel?

Sachs ftw

I got the lighter g60 flywheel and it does vibrate a little when you rev with the clutch disengaged. So you get a tractor noise from the box lol.
