just took my clutch off, clutch is new but need to know if the flywheel's knackered with this wear on it? and has anyone got a decent turbo flywheel to sell if it is too far gone? cheers

That flywheel does not look brilliant. It's clearly run the disc down to the rivets at some point. This could probably be fixed by having it reground, but it also appears to have radial cracks, which is not uncommon in turbos which have either done a lot of miles or possibly been abused. I have seen some cracked far worse than yours, but I'd be looking to replace it if it was mine. The cracks will go deeper han a regrind wil fix. There are various Turbo flyheels on eBay now. Most look better than yours, but I'd want tome decent pics orassurance that they are not cracked before choosing one.
