It is impossible to get a flywheel...

I've called all over God's green earth and I can't seem to source a flywheel....I thought I had one at Gruppe-S, but they emailed me and said that it was also out of stock. If anyone knows where I can score one, I would appreciate it. I have an appointment on Monday to get my clutch/flywheel replaced. Maybe I should call the Mitsu dealer about getting a stock flywheel....

what kind of clutch are you getting?? most high end clutch's(exedy,rps,ats,cusco,orc) should all come with flywheels... or are you trying to locate a stock flywheel?

^ Try Prostreet, they should have the lightweight one. ACT has them but I think they're limited production so far.

I have a good used one, if you are looking for stock, that only has 5,000 miles.

i feel your pain bro, two days before i got my clutch installed i found out that the flywheel i had ordered was on backorder, i searched pretty much every performance shop known to man and finally tracked one down.

check lancershop. they had a couple in stock a week ago when i checked with them, there is also a shop here in texas that manufactures their own flywheel and has them in stock. thats what i have on my car right now and its great.

Yep, we sure do! In fact, we have a special right now... $450 SHIPPED for an ACT Heavy Duty, and $279 shipped for a EVO 8 Flywheel.....

Yeah, but at the time I needed it, you were out of stock. I purchased the clutch through you guys though.

I was in the same boat last week, so I just bought a stocker as an emergency stopper just in case the clutch lets go immediately. I chose not to go with chromemoly (prostreet). I feel your pain.
