Re: Which aftermarket Flywheel do you have?
I just got mine and it has a Fidanza fly. and it rattles under load and below 2000rpm it sound as if the front bearing of the trans is bad. It maybe more that just the fly. Its also the noisest when its warmed up.

Re: Which aftermarket Flywheel do you have?
will a trans rebuild and a clutch disk with dampener springs cure the problem?

I believe John used the sprung disk. Raising the idle will help some when sitting at a light. But a rebuild will not help. |

The only cure is to put the stock dual-mass flywheel back in. That is why they used the dual-mass in the first place was to quiet the rattle. I call it the rut-rut-rut sound. But then you will give up all the performance gains of the light flywheel. |

Re: Which aftermarket Flywheel do you have?
Well hopefully you guys will get to know that I’m not a quitter I’m an engineer and machinist. Nothing is impossible just impractical. I look forward too the challenge if that’s all there is too it and no trans damage.

It really isn't as big an issue as you may think. The noise comes from uneven pulsing from the motor causing the synchros to rattle. The dual mass absorbs that vibration. A sprung hub disk helps do the same altho nowhere near as completely. However, with judicious tuning and slight raising of idle (mine is in the 725rpm range), the uneven pulsation is better controlled significantly diminishing the rattle from the synchros. Choice of trans fluid also contributes to making the single mass acceptable. |
