I have a flywheel for my rx7 that i just bought, my other was cracked, so the question is can i put an S5 flywheel on an S4 car both enignes and flywheels are turbo. Do i need any counter weight, i know that they are stock cast into the flywheel, but is this any different case? WILL THIS WORK?

IF you install the matching S5 Front Counterweight.
Your rotating assembly will be off balance.







Keep the counterweights matching the series rotors.

If you need a flywheel drop me a PM. A buddy has one he'll probably let go cheap.
