Exedy 2004-2011 Mazda 3 L4 Lightweight Flywheel

EXEDY Lightweight Flywheels combine low weight, low inertia and high thermal capacity. They are designed for light to moderately tuned racing cars for drag racing, autocross and rally events, as well as street usage. They are made from solid one-piece billet chromoly steel or chromoly steel forgings. They are specifically designed to reduce weight and inertia for better engine response. Most incorporate special design features to enhance the airflow which improves the cooling of the clutch. The ring gear teeth are integrated onto the flywheel unlike an aluminum flywheel where the ring gear is pressed onto the flywheel and has the possibility of separating from the flywheel due to the different expansion coefficients of aluminum and steel. Newly available are lightweight, solid replacements for vehicles fitted with OE dual mass flywheels. EXEDY lightweight flywheels have passed engineering tests to 15,000-18,000 RPM. They are guaranteed not to fail to the said RPM, and are all SFI approved. Lightweight Racing Flywheel; 8 Bolt; One Piece Billet Chromoly Steel; 13.0 lb.; Lightweight Flywheel

The Exedy ZF501A lightweight flywheel is designed to enhance engine response and performance for Mazda 3 models from 2004 to 2011. Crafted from solid one-piece billet chromoly steel, this flywheel offers a significant reduction in weight—approximately 13 pounds—compared to stock components, resulting in quicker acceleration and improved throttle response. Its low inertia design makes it ideal for light to moderately tuned racing applications, including drag racing, autocross, rally, and street driving. The flywheel's construction ensures durability and high thermal capacity, enabling it to withstand high temperatures during demanding driving conditions.
The ZF501A features integrated ring gear teeth, eliminating the risk of separation issues common with pressed-on designs used in aluminum flywheels. This integration enhances reliability and longevity, especially at high RPMs, with the flywheel passing engineering tests up to 18,000 RPM and being fully SFI certified. Additionally, the design includes airflow-enhancing features to facilitate better cooling of the clutch assembly, supporting consistent performance and longer clutch life.
This lightweight flywheel is a direct replacement for OEM dual-mass flywheels, providing a substantial upgrade in responsiveness without compromising durability. It is suitable for enthusiasts seeking improved engine dynamics and is compatible with various Mazda 3 models produced between 2004 and 2011. As a high-quality, engineered solution, the Exedy ZF501A flywheel is an excellent choice for performance-oriented street and racing applications, ensuring reliable operation under extreme conditions.
