broken fidanza

Never personally heard of this but let us know how it goes. Our Fidenza is brand new though that we just installed in our Sentra SE-R used only a total of 5 track days so far.

Don't know if I'd call it garbage. Yours is the only one I've seen With such a failure. But your new flywheel is pretty nice.

Google " fidanza problems" there's a lot of unsatisfied customers and all problems related to ring gear slipping off of aluminum

I had not had that problem but many years back I had cracked the flywheel

ooouu shit hopefully i dont run into the same problem. i bought mine new though..so i assume it wont run into the same problem soon. and since you got yours used..how much miles did you put into it before the previous owner. and how heavy was your driving? daily usage? clutch combo? im sure they play a role into this. your new loco fw is hawt tho and brah is that the autech front i was gonna buy from you years ago? lol

Not sure mileage and usage from previous owner, but keep in mind fellas... problem was in the ring gear which isn't even in play when the car is running. I mean come on now, the part that fails is the part that has the least pressure (starting).

If you visit fidanzas website, they do mention that these are not recommended for lifetime use. Also stated that the flywheel needs to be inspected 1s in awhile. Wtf...... its inside the tranny and I'm not the type that'll drop the trans just to inspect the flywheel.... lol


Kal... this is a different autech. Got it for cheap since it didn't come with piaas

Loren's flywheel is nice and would be a nice upgrade since it is "technically" stock and still keeps the integrity of a 1 piece design. From your other thread, it looks like you already have it on. You move a lot faster than I would have.

You did put all the bolts in that hold the flywheel on and not just the four in that pic, right?

But of course man. I was in the middle of the install and took a quick pic of the awesomeness. Loctite (blue) and finally torqued to 65'lbs

Had you I.spected on a regular basis this could have been prevented. Your negligence is inexcusable lol.
Kidding

^^^ i need someone to build me a see-through bellhousing for that
