I had the 9.75 SR Motorsports flywheel installed last week by Mazda. I was not sure what to expect after I got behind the wheel after much of what I read concerning significant clutch feel. That was the furthest thing from the truth. In about 5 minutes the light flywheel seemed to always be there. The truth is that it took much longer to get used to the the stock feel than the light flywheel. I wanted to get that off my chest.
Initial impression is as has been described- much quicker rpm climb. Acceleration is much more responsive and I believe worth the not so minimal expense.
I will be getting my SR Motorsports pullies installed on Monday and can't wait to test initial response and improvement. I am running out of performance mods.

 

you'll love the pulleys, I have another companies set but man they are good.

 

Hey JERCS.. are you going to post information about it? You have been teasing us far too long.. At least I think it was you who talked about another companies pulley kit...

Yup it was you just checked...

 

Do you have any other SR mods on your 8?? I was looking for feedback on the Intake they have.

 

My intake is a K&N which I like. I used to have a rough idle when I originally got the intake. Maybe it has been the various flashes but the idle continues to be fine and runs a shade over 750 rpm.

You will love the feeling of having light weight flywheel + light weight pulley! I have that on my nismo z and geee... the car just feels like it is ALIVE from the death! Please keep us posted on how you feel about it!

cheers,

Still a secret I do have some problems with the idle now because of my RE intake, gets really hard.
