JE Flywheel Needed ASAP

Post by DMiester129 » Sun Oct 21, 2012 2:09 pm

hey guys I've been trying to convert my hc to 5 speed for a few months now. but I'm having trouble getting a custom flywheel machined to fit in the stock location because there is a lack of information on the specifications and I can't seem to source an OEM one in the states. If any of you guys from across the pond could help I would really appreciate it as 5 speeed hc's were more readily available over there. Thanks -Dave

Keep an eye on http://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/

also if you see anyone selling parts, you may ask, they might have it

also this is Mazda Luce in jap: マツダ・ルーチェ (helps with the searching)

I did go custom.... Image

but I'm having a problem with my custom flywheel being too thick. The throwout bearing is pushed all the way back before I can even bolt the trans to the engine. And I do not really want to start shaving it down and guessing before I try to get the proper measurements.
