RB replacement friction plate runs appx $75. It says it will fit both 215 and 225....ITS A LIE. I bought one appx 5 years ago and it was for a 225. Same part #.

yep.. I did the same.. Bought a usd flywheel, new friction plate..

turns out the plate was for an 225mm flywheel and the flywheel was a 215mm.

I have an RB aluminum flywheel I need a friction plate for. I too don't know what size I have. What's the difference between the 215 and 225mm friction surfaces.

10mm. j/k. I can be made tho. I've visited 10,000 RPM in Palmdale CA several years ago. They looked at the flywheel and told me that they can make it. I didnt follow up since I found several old friction plates in my garage (Never throw things away) and my buddy was able to clean it up.

As long as there are no deep scratches, not warped and no exposed screws, it can be re-used. Also, I used that flywheel along with carbon kevlar disk til I switched to stock flywheel and puck clutch.
