Fidanza 94-05 Mazda Miata 8lb Aluminum Flywheel

This is the Fidanza 8lb aluminum flywheel, specifically made for your 1994-1997 and 1999-2005 Mazda Miata. Swapping to a lighter flywheel like this one is a popular modification because it reduces the rotational mass the engine has to spin. This means the engine can rev up and down more quickly, leading to improved acceleration and a more responsive feel when you get on the gas.

Fidanza builds these flywheels with a billet 6061 T6 or 2024 T4 aluminum body, which is about 40-60 percent lighter than the stock cast iron unit. They also heat-treat the friction plate for a solid grip and long life, and it's designed to be replaced if needed. The ring gear is made from hardened 1050 steel and is also a bolt-on replacement, ensuring reliability. Using military-spec fasteners adds to the overall strength and dependability of this component.

Because this flywheel has a lower moment of inertia (MOI), you'll notice a definite change in how quickly the engine responds to throttle input. It's a well-built part that makes a noticeable difference in how the car feels during spirited driving.
