just wondering if anyone had any problems putting their fidanza flywheels on there engines? mine seems to not fit and i think i'm going to sand down a mm or so till it fits. so if anyone had this problem coudl they let me know what to do to get around it.

on a side note, i'm just wondering if anyone had any problems taking their motor mounts off? if so, what was the problem and how did you go about it, because mine are being a *****.thanks

I had a bit of a problem with the mounts. I believe on the passenger side there isn't much room to get good contact with a socket over the bottom nut. I started to strip mine so I went out and bought a 1/2" drive 14mm extension socket. That coupled with a nice big ratchet did the trick for me.

Yeah I just sanded the center hole with ultra fine sandpaper till it fit on. It took a while which was awsome because as soon as I had it on, I stripped a pressure plate bolt hole and had to buy a whole new fidenza flywheel and do it all over again.

Lesson learned: Make sure to not explicetly follow the included instructions like I did, or you'll be stuck with a $350 paper weight.

hey, well i think i have my flywheel on but i'm not totally sure it's lined up perfect. but i think it is. anyways i just kept putting it on and taking it off and i think by doing that it made the hole bigger. but i was wondering do the bolts have to be set to a certain torque on the flywheel? and what about the torques for the clutch if anyone has them? thanks

That's what I got, a Toda flywheel. Perfect fit and great rev difference from the stock flywheel.
