im pretty sure the flywheel is single mass. The supra is the only car i have heard of with a dual mass flywheel, and yes, you can change the clutch disc without the flywheel.

I believe it is a single as well.

Dual mass is used in the Supra and surprisingly the V6 6spd tiburon.

I am sure a few other cars use it.

I have never seen one in a 4cyc, maybe there is a reason for it? Not sure thou.

Single mass for sure. I have some photos in other threads.

The SVT Focus has a dual mass flywheel and since the the Mini Cooper S uses the same transmission and clutch I would assume that it probably also has the same flywheel

Single mass. I have one sitting on one of my welding tables.

200sx s15 also uses a dual mass flywheel. At least we can machine ours if we need to! Dual masses are a wate of time anyway...

I wish the evo had a dual mass flywheel. Most late model cars have them. They do what the spring center on a disc does but it does it FAR better. Moving this job to flywheel allows allows disc to be lighter. you get fast high rpm shifting without out noises.

If you look at all after market clutches of twin a triple design about 95% could never come on a factory vehicle sold to public. noise being unacceptable.

this is best clutch on market for having your cake and eating it too. I wish it was possible on evo. click on video to hear difference. evos are even worse in noise as four cylinders have the worst harmonics of any engine. http://www.ppi-ats.com/Silent_clutch.html
