Is there any significance of the teeth? Do they serve some sort of balance to the flywheel itself?

Are you referring to the teeth the starter uses to turn over the engine?

six sigma racing

i think so... i think he might like push starting his car...

92TypeR

Or he is converting to an old-school hand crank starter!

The new OBX hyper light flywheels dont have any teeth, they said the lower weight is a 5 hp gain over toothed flywheels.

Just looking for some advice. Got a JDM b16 '93 for a 97 civic lx. Got everything but the wiring harness. any ideas for up grades/ install?

Turbowa

Your kidding right.....

Acidcrakker

Whoa, ********, calm down. Im only asking if it has any significance engine wise. Other than the starter.

Thanks for those that awnsered seriously, and not made a freaking joke out of things.

But thats not what you asked. You asked:

Which isnt referring to the engine at all.

Acidcrakker

If you say so.

Listen this isnt a debate here, if you dont have anything productive to add here than dont bother posting.

Thanks

no teeth on the flywheel means not teeth turning the starter, which means you're not starting your car...before you call people ******** think about your question and the answers you got...that was a very dumb question and you got the same back

I grind off every other tooth, it works great on syncho's engagement and starter/flywheel engagement too.

Acidcrakker

Hey man, Ill call people aholes when they give ahole answers.

Dont have anything to contribute, do bother. Why some flywheels have more or less teeth? Well I guess it doesnt matter, than, since apperantly the only issue is the where and how it connects with the starter.

For instance you get a flywheel with 121 teeth on it and the OEM flywheel has 119. Than that would change things?



Dont offer a GOD complex with me. Or act like you are doing me a favor by posting in this thread.

This is an open forum. You cant stop people from posting in your thread. Deal with it, like we deal with your stupid question.

Theyre really just there to give it a mean fast look.. I'd just grind them off if I were you, the starter turns your intake manifold not the flywheel so I wouldnt worry to much. Takem off, less weight = faster.

You asked a question, you got an answer, it was a rude answer but this is the Internet, at least you learned something, don't let it bug you man

hey guys, last time i got a new flywheel i was going to put some weights on it for extra balance, but i took the teeths off the flywheel and welded them to the clutch basket, is this ok?

425_Booster

As long as it all spins and is in balance, you should be ok.
