this tranny i am tearing apart i am replacing the flywheel with a OEM version. the fidanza flywheel did not have a spacer behind it. when i tried to bolt the OEM version it will not bolt up, need a spacer?

 

when i removed my oem one neither time have i needed a spacer so i doubt you do. wats it look like when you are trying to mount it?

 

oddd. i never had spacer on mine.. can you take a pic?

are you putting it on the right way? LOL

how thick is this spacer your talking about? or what thickness do you think it would need to be?

you sure you have the right flywheel? whats preventing it from bolting up?

what year is the flywheel from?

 

i unfortunately right now can not take pics cause the car is 20 miles away from me.

the flywheel has "B2.0" cast in it. it is from the kit i bought from blacktibs that he got from hyundaicraz so i am pretty sure it is a good one. when we were torqueing it down, the center started to bulge. yeah, we were using a impact (i know,beat me later) but it would never seat.

also, what are teh torque specs for flywheel bolts, i cant find it.

 

older tibs had a diff size crank.. it was 41mm, new are 35mm, but i think using old one would still work, but i duno if the 'seat' design was different or not.

do you know what year it was from, pre 99? or post?

center bulged???? WTF that thing is like 3/8" thick or more, crazy.

 

yes, i read on stocker's swap thread on the difference between 35 to 41 just a wee bit ago, i wonder if that is the problem. no way to check until tomorrow.

but in the end, no spacer in the rear i guess eh?

 

wow it sure sounds wierd. damn. yea wat year is it from? that could resolve sooo many problems

 

have no clue what the tranny came out of. i will just have to take measurements tomorrow i suppose and i bet the mm difference is the problem i am having. no biggie, just get a new flywheel and junk the one that came with the tranny.

btw, can you order just the wear pad of a fidanza flywheel and replace it or do you have to order the whole damn new thing?

 

you can order a new wear plate..

and what im talking about with the crank.. is the new crank is 6mm smaller, so if the design is same, either flywheel should work, but im not sure if anything else changed.

 

well, new wear plate so far is 60 bux brand new. think i will just go that route.

now just to find a place that carries them cause summitracing wont have them until 3-09-09
