^ i know that with mine only at motorway speeds the oe flywheel helps more with acceleration or taking etc. but like you said 1/4 mile dash, nope.

My N15 5-door GTi Build...

The slightly heavier flywheel will mean slightly slower acceleration and less response. No two ways about this.
Any performance increase to do with acceleration would be attributed to the clutch itself in this scenario.
It's not a huge amount of difference, but a heavier flywheel means that the engine has more work to do to increase the flywheel speed to accelerate.
On the same token, the heavier flywheel will make take-offs a bit easier & smoother as the engine will be less prone to bog down when the clutch is being disengadged.

Its very loud and it`s very fast. I`d say the UKs fastest N15 5 dr. Good work joe.
After taking her for a drive, the front end felt a little wobbly, so the thicker roll bar and poly bushes should help alot. A whiteline rear anti-roll bar should help tighten the rear as aswell. A quicker ratio GTi rack would also add to the package. The brakes felt fine, so i wouldn`t worry about the rear drums too much.

it certainly is quick
Cheers Lads..
I should like to hope so
Shall get the ARB & Bushes fitted shortly..
Whiteline Rear bar is on the shopping list.. as is an LSD Gearbox..
But top of the list is a set of decent Tyres
I'm over the moon with the brakes, they have really impressed me. Thanks for the recommendation Rowdy, Your now a True ALC member!!

we need to get ian to nuneaton in liquid yO
i'd like to think you meant something fairly innocent by "in liquid", like a club - but judging by your lots other work i'm sure it's something far more sinister :gay:
i tell yah lads the next time if Ian goes, im going haha
a damn typo 
shaggy_master

Rear quarter scrape, and arch rust removed, and repainted

Looks good, should be fine for another few years as far as rust is concerned!
No before pics though ?
