I'm looking to get a Fidanza flywheel for my car. I'm doing the swap to 3sgte and Im wondering if an MR2 3sgte flywheel will fit?

yes. it will work, as long as you are using a 90-93 3sgte, it may work for the 94-98, but i'm not positive about that.

A flywheel is the part that spins around in the transmission and when the clutch touches it, the flywheel causes the clutch to spin, making your axles turn giving you momentum. Or something like that. Check this out for a better expaination... http://www.howstuffworks.com

As for a high performance flywheel for the 3sgte you should get a JUN Flywheel. It's like less than 10lbs and is made of titanium so that makes it hella strong.

the flywheel is what the clutch interacts with. the flywheel is on the crankshaft axis, and spins with the engine. the clutch plate approaches the flywheel when you press the clutch pedal, and when the meet, the spinning (power) is transferred from the flywheel to the clutch to the drivetrain.

a lighter flywheel helps rotation and acceleration. smile.gif

by reducing the weight of the flywheel you don't increase engine HP but HP at wheels cause the reduction of any rotating mass let the engine work faster cause it has less weight to move wink.gif
