Need some opinions!!
Hey guys, I have recently put exhaust and intake on my rx8 and I was wondering what the next best performance mod would be for my car. If you guys could give me your opinions that would be great Thanks!

If your car has high mileage swaping the flywheel would require replacement of the clutch as well. So, if you don't have the cash right now spend the money for the flywheel on a crank pulley $130 and a short shifter $260. I have the axial flow and personally like it a lot.

well, I thought that the rx8 already came with a stock short shifter. Would an aftermarket one really improve the performance that much? Also, I only have 15000 miles on my rx8, so I dont think I would need to replace the clutch if I got the lightweight fly wheel

you dont have a clue...
yes the afe short shifter does impove the shifts. a lot.
as to the clutch. if you are going to spend 400 to 500 bucks labor to put in a lightweight flywheel would you want to pay it again 20k mile later to put in a new clutch?
if you want an opinion and get it. research before you dispute it.
