    That's not a Toda, Toda have the ring gear machined as part of the flywheel, Toda also weight less, 3.7kg for 200mm ultra light, 4.4kg for 212mm light weight.

    1. My old AE82 4AGE Bigport flywheel weighs in at 8kg.

    2. The measurment is take from the outer of where the clutch plate contacts the flywheel. See pic of my lightened flywheel (4AGE AE82 Bigport 200mm)

    ..

    hope you have a scatter shield?

    why did you remove material from the area that needs most strength, and has least inertia?
