lightened flywheel, is it worth it???
Discussion
very funny i keep asking the same questions cause the answers i get are not good enough ok.why dont u come over to malaysia with ur TVR and ask around how to fix this and that and see their faces!!!chimp i know u were happy with it but is it a crime to ask more people???oh sorry i forgot this forum is only for making jokes is it???and when i called V8 they didn't have the flywheel for my car and rob wasn't there.sorry again if i ask questions but i need answers not bad comments.we share the same passion about TVR me maybe even more than u as this is my 3th CHIMAERA in the country where only 10 units were sold.i guess will have to buy the last 7 to complete my collection!!!now last question.how about a 500 standard clutch with a lightened flywheel???cause i was quote 5++over pounds for the helix and shipping

he is the king of repeat questions, keeps us entertained though 
i really have no idea.i prefert to get from someone famous like V8 who knows what they are doing.i sent 2 emails but still no reply.i called once and had a very friendly person on the phone.not the famous ROB but someone very friendly.i guess they didn't get my email.will have to call them back for final quote.

Serious question - can you not get clutches remanufactured to a good standard over there? In the UK there were several people doing them to the same quality as new ones but the savings didn't make it worthwhile.
In your case it probably would be if done locally.

Another nice mod for V8Frog & Daz the Plumber only.
When you fit the lightened flywheel, smear driven face with LM grease.
This Lithium based, high melting point grease is specifically designed to lubricate your clutch friction plate.
In Malaysia the high temperatures will actually help the LM grease bond with friction material to produce a much faster spin up.
Well worth doing, you can buy LM grease from 2CV Developments in Smolding, Loncinshore.
Just ask for Bob Bobertson.
