Need a Single Mass Flywheel

[docurley]

I need to get hold of a single mass flywheel for my 1.8TQ to go with a Southbend clutch I bought.

If anyone can point me in the right direction I will appreciate it.

Fidanza flywheels are concidered the best in the market:

what about Southbend themselves? 10-12lb single mass lightweight wheels

Cost too much I'm on a budget as normal.

I have no idea if that would fit a 1.8T I would suspec not but may be someone more in know would be able to chip in.

Keep the sugestion coming guys and thanks

any lightweight one is going to be pricey. especially if bought over here
all fidanza, southbend etc are around the $500 mark.
whats your budget?

 

[Broken Byzan]

I bought my whole clutch and flywheel kit from them, around ££350 delivered with the stage 3 setup. Also they mark it as a warrenty replacement, it helps with customs etc

 

[docurley]

How much do I want to spend............ nothing

But for a budget £150.

V6 flywheel doesn't fit I4.

8-bolt fitting, as opposed to 6.

Did you get hold of the guy you know for a price by any chance?

 

[Siena]

thanks Siena. is the v8 8 bolt too?

40V V8, with the exception of the RS6, have 8-bolt fitment.

RS6 and all 32V V8 engines, have 10-bolt fitment.

Hummmm just found out that some TDI have a Single Mass flywheel as stock and wandered if this would fit and be up to the job?

seriously? that doesn't make sense, which model?

 

[jcb]

it will be monster heavy on a TDi

www.ttvracing.co.uk if they don't list it, ask, as the website is in the middle of a revamp so hasn't been updated recently.

Will fit, but your engine won't run.

The crank sensor air gap's in a different place on a TDI.

That put an end to that idea.

 

[Broken Byzan]

Our crank sensor runs from the gear inside the engine mounted on the rear of the crank, so no worries about sensors.

I made enquires about some of the single mass conversions listed for A3's and TDi's etc some shops said they would work on an A4 and some said no. 100% the crank sensor poses no problem tho

 

[jcb]

surely it will be heavier? they run massive damper balancing units as well

 

[docurley]

Well it's too much of a gamble so I will look for one that I know will fit.
