just got off the phone with fidanza, they said the flywheel for the ss/sc has been completed and can be bought through any of their distributors. gravanatuning says it's not shipping until january, but they put that up a while back.

the part # is 198201

msrp is $439 it's listed much cheaper on most of the websites though

 

what is it's weight and what is the weight of the stock unit?

 

It weights 7.5 lbs but i have no idea what the stock one weights

 

We have these on order also and have been added online at Turbo Tech Racing for about 2 months. The stock is around 20lbs.

 

damn a 13 pound reducition on the drivetrain is equivelent to dropping 125-130 pounds of dead weight on the car.

yaya.. i don't need to diet!

 

wow thats really light.

 

And it is a damn nice flywheel, revs REAL quick and response is much improved.

 

Here is a picture for anyone interested. Got it from Gravana Tuning. Hope they don't mind.

Fidanza aluminum flywheels are made from the highest quality 6061 T6 aluminum. The material is fantastic for strength, heat dissipation and of course reduction in weight. The friction surface we use is an incredibly strong 1050 steel. The plates are milled to meet our high specifications. A Fidanza flywheel can mate with any type of clutch material, including organic, kevlar, ceramic, metallic and sintered iron. We attach the friction surface with military grade aerospace fasteners. The ring gears we use are also made from 1050 steel and are heat treated for durability. The gears are heated then pressed on and secured with grade 8 button screws. We were the first to utilize a stepped dowel system in most of our flywheel applications. This doweling method ensures that once the pressure plate is installed the dowels cannot be removed because they become locked into place.
Will Only fit the Chevrolet Cobalt SS / Saturn Redline 2.0L 2005+

Woo hoo!! 1050 Reward Points with Turbo Tech.. Bitchen!

 

Awesome. I read about this about a month ago. Can't wait to see how our cars react to them.

 

the best thing is that if you have to change your clutch again you don't have to resurface the fidanza... they have removable friction pads on them, so for $35 you can have basically a brand new surface

 

Coolk

 

Hey, ExHondaMan..if I buy one, can ya hook me up with a lift at your shop?

 

now if we just had a decent clutch, the flywheel would be worth it

 

spec just released their cobalt ss lightwieght flywheel too. it would've been great if my clutch started going out after clutchmasters made one, but it's not and i'm stuck with a spec lol

 

Spec stage 3's Are very good clutches!

 

Way to big of a job I dont even know if I could do my own car. When its time for my clutch and flywheel... I will definitely be getting hte fidanza and probably spec clutch.. and I will probably have to have someone do it for me...

 

lol the manual says it's 10 hours, and 7~hours under warranty. that day is gonna suck, cause it'll probably take me an actual 12-14 hours to get it done
