[Mk2] [NA] Question about flywheels

Post by jakeymears »

Hi, does anyone know if a rev3 turbo lightened flywheel would fit a rev2 N/A import ?

From what I can find it looks like it might bolt up to the crank assuming its an 8 bolt flange, but I would have to use a turbo pressure plate and an N/A friction disk. Is this correct ?

You're correct on all counts.

Why would you want to? :?

I've found a flywheel being sold by a member on here and had already arranged to buy it when i realized it wasn't a n/a flywheel. On the upside by using the turbo pressure plate it might mean I get more clamping force (I'm not sure on that just hoping)

I do agree with you though it is a very convoluted method of fitting a lightened flywheel when there are easier options, this just happens to be a good deal

Thanks for the helpful response :thumleft:
