You can have this lightened as well. The only thing is that you need to have the proper clutch from a pre 86 as well (throw out bearing, pressure plate). From what I hear it is well worth it.
    Get out of here, my 85 has a lighter flywheel? I've never heard of this!

      Basically building my Eta into a sleepr....really hard right now after i focused all my money onto my business.
      No, you don't get 190hp just putting a chip on an eta, nor on an i.

      Single mass flywheels are around 20lbs.

        yeah thats what i figured, won't the numbers be more like....121 to around 140hp or so, and like +15lb on torque ? or less

        How much do the single mass flywheels usually run for

          Could be, check the build date. What rear do you have in now? Sports (and others) got a 2.93 to help make up 0-60 times, but early etas even with a 2.73 are close to a second quicker 0-60. (found these stats on Fred's site).

              Isn't it a 2.79 and a 2.93? My ES has a 2.93 LSD, but I bought a 3.25 LSD, that's going in in a couple weeks.

                I have an 86 VDO ES cluster and an 87+ IS VDO Euro cluster. Can I take the tach and speedo out of the euro cluster and put it in my ES cluster? Is that all I need to do?

                    AFAIK that the gauge swaps should be a direct bolt-in. Also, the early diffs are 2.79 like you said, EtaSport just made a typo in his response.

                      Nice :) :patsonback: I remembered something lol.

                      I'll give it a try and let you all know - not like it's that hard to do, I can always reverse it lol.

                      Any ideas on marking a redline? I don't want anyone else driving my car and trying to rev to the i redline (which is what?) Whats the Super ETA tach redline?

                        yep.. thats it.. im going to look through those articles and see if i can find those stats.

                        edit- heres some interesting stats.



                        not quite as much, looks like 8.4 (0-60) for the 84e and 9.0 for the 86es. Could be a mere weight difference as the 84 was lighter than the es.
