I have finally managed to source an m30 flywheel and my flywheel people are ready to start producing some light weight m30 flys.
They are the later style flywheel for the 34 clutch which is considerably cheaper than the early one.
No weightds yet as tey have not made any, i have ordered 3 initially, but i can get them to up production if anyone else is interested.
Makes a huge difference to any engine, M20 ones sell well, have sold S50 ones too, ask Jhonno what he thinks of his.
Price will be in the range of the M20 ones, the more the cheaper potentially.
They will be ready in a couple of weeks.

Can also supply the E30 m30 engine mounts for either the early E28 engines or the later e34 ones.

Thanks
Richard

These flywheels are awesome.. They look too good to fit, and bring an engine to life.

If you are doing an engine swap you'd be daft not to fit one..

The only 'negative' (which is generic light flywheel related) is when pushing on/tracking you need to heel and toe, or you risk locking the rear wheels on downshift as I did at the top of Foxhole at the Nurburgring, as the revs drop a lot quicker :o:

Needing to heel and toe is no disadvantge... An E30 is probably the easiest car in the world to do it with winkeye

230 or something along those lines for the M20 one I think Cliffy.

I was going to get one but my gearbox decided to let go sooner planned so just had to machine a standard M20 one down but hopefully I'll be able to get one of these the next time I'm opening a bell-housing for an M42, M20 or M52 :cool:

This is the e34 m30 but i believe, and correct me if i am wrong - sure someone will, they will fit the e28 aswell which is why i had them done, e34 clutches are cheaper than e28 ones and was going to fit on to my m535i.

M30 flywheel, lead time 2 weeks from today £250-00
M20 flywheel, lead time 2 weeks from today £250-00
S14 flywheel, on shelf £260-00
S50 flywheel, lead time 2 weeks from today £260-00
All take standard clutches, m30 fly designed for e34 clutch as cheaper than e28 clutch.
Can get them for race clutches too, slightly lighter, same price.
S50 flywheel suitable for S52 too.
Can get S50 flywheel to take M5 clutch in reverse as per Jhonno's conversion.
Also available S54 flywheels, either lighter or ones which are relevant for the US race series where flywheel reduction is limited so they are made with the weight in the middle of the flywheel to keep the maximum effectiveness of a lightened flywheel. POA.
Looking for someone with a mini cooper who would like to try the mini one which is matched to a clutch for max effectiveness so can get some feedback on the conversion. Discounted price available, PM me.
Please PM me with all your requirements.
Thanks
Richard

Bad Dave, m20 flys weigh in at 4.3kgs

Cplagz, one piece billet, teeth cut into billet so no ring gear issues

STiBen - not had an M30 fly to weigh. yet but significantkly less than standard. Will weigh and post as soon as i get one in my hands

Minicooper172 - They are 2 possible position mounts, 1 or 2, will get price sorted this week.

Keen on a M20 one. Would require postage to Australia. I'll talk to a few others over here and see if I can drum up some interest to send one package over :)

:(

My E36 6 speed has thrown in the towel (or something clutch related inside the bell-housing which I'm not going splitting until I can fit the E46 gearbox) so its going to miss out on the rest of the fun on the slippy roads until I sort something :roll:
