video of 182 with lighter flywheel?

[bozothenutter]

anybody have one?
looked on 'tube with different permutations .....couldn't find a thing

What are you trying to find out?

It'd just be a 182 that revs up and down quicker when the clutch is in. It wont sound or look any different.

Isn't the flywheel pretty light as standard anyway?

 

[bozothenutter]

have one ready to mount , just wondering how much quicker.....
will find out soon enough though....?

5.3kg standard.

You wont be able to measure from a video.

You're not adding power, you're just letting the engine rev up and down quicker by virtue of having less weight hanging off the crank. It's still going to have the same torque behind it at any given moment.

So any gains will be in your hands and how quick you can rifle through the gearbox.

Amazingly then as it’s a Renault box?

Oh it'll need a replacement gearbox in the none-too-distant future, sure.
But lightened flywheel bro

misunderstanding there mate, didn't mean quicker as in car, but quicker as in revs (rising)

CS politics aside I'd be interested in seeing the difference between flywheels should a video ever come to fruition.

Ahhh, I getcha.

Very old video of my 182 with a lightened flywheel, 98ron rstuner map, decat and janspeed exhaust A/c delete and EPAS. My current cup has one too so the more recent videos of it will show the revvyness however it does have cams too.

Here's one that actually compares apples to apples. Albeit Japanese convertible apples.

Witness the night/day difference of halving the mass of a flywheel.

 

[R3k1355]

5.3kg standard.

Basically average weight for what most would already consider a lightweight flywheel on a 2 litre engine then?

In today's world yeah with modern dual mass items now too.

I think the lightened Clio ones are about 3kg.
