Hi there,

Was wondering what people were using for flywheels with the 6 speed box? also what clutch? I want to use a single mass one. (solid)

I don't mind ordering from the states just wondered what people are using.

Cheers Phil

I got a flywheel for a M62B46 from them and it was around the £300 mark. I'll be using the same box as you and the flywheel is machined to use a clutch from an Evo M3 which, I think, is similar to the E39 M5 clutch.

That looks like very heavy piece of flywheel. Sure it's easier regarding clutch (original bolts on / dimensions "right" without modifications) but bringing the "clutch face" so much aftward increases weight and costs (you'll need quite a chunk of metal to make that from)..

The BBB looks identical to the TTV one and the TTV one is lighter than an stock m62 one (had both in my hand) they use an m5 e34 clutch (I think) which has a sprung hub.

Well I was going to order a TTV one but they have a 3-6 week lead time. Any other suggestions?
