Competition Clutch Lightweight Steel Flywheel for 1993-2002 VW Golf, Jetta & Passat VR6 (2-788-RST)
Unlock quicker throttle response and faster acceleration in your 12v VR6 without sacrificing daily driveability. The Competition Clutch Lightweight Steel Flywheel (ST suffix) is the ultimate upgrade for enthusiast drivers who want a more responsive engine while preserving critical low-end torque.
Engineered from premium 4140 forged steel, this one-piece design replaces the heavy OEM setup to deliver smoother high-RPM action. It provides the perfect balance of weight reduction and thermal capacity, making it an excellent choice for Euro street builds, highway cruising, and track use.
Why Choose the Competition Clutch ST Flywheel?
- Optimized VR6 Throttle Response: Lightens the rotational drag of the staggered 6-cylinder layout so it sings through the rev range freer and matches gear revs cleanly.
- Preserved Driveability: Specifically engineered for street performance to retain smooth launch characteristics without excessive engine bogging or harsh engagement.
- Perfect Clutch Compatibility: Perfectly matched and well-suited for Gravity, Stage 1, and Stage 2 clutch kits.
- One-Piece Forged Strength: CNC-machined from ultra-durable 4140 chromoly steel for maximum safety, reliability, and longevity under high-RPM abuse.

Break-In Procedure
After you install your new Competition Clutch you will want to make sure that the clutch is properly broken in for ultimate operation. To break in your clutch, shift as often as possible during the first 500 miles, by doing so you will make sure that the material from the disc is embedded into the friction surfaces of the pressure plate and flywheel. Following the break-in procedure will ensure that your clutch has the longest possible lifespan. If you have any questions, please reach out to our tech department and we will be happy to help.
