My cousin and I have just finished replacing the leaky rear main seal for my D16Z6 I currently have in my hatch. I, also, decided to replace the stock clutch with an ACT HD-SS unit. Along with the clutch, I used a set of ARP flywheel and pressure plate bolts. At first, I didn't really understand why it came with (8) flywheel bolts instead of six. Three hours later, we bolt & torque everything up and cranked the car. A cluttering noise came from the engine, sounding like something was loose. Since I did not re-install the dust shield cover at the bottom, I was able to inspect the back of the flywheel. THE DAMN THING WAS A TAD LOOSE!!! Come to find out, the people I bought the bolts from sent me the wrong stuff. They sent me flywheel bolts for a B-series instead. Both the B & D series bolts are the same bolt patterns (M12 x 1.0) by the way. I'm so freakin tired and pissed right now....that I have to redo all this sh*t tomorrow morning. Word of advice, when you have any doubts, double check yourselves or else.

 

okay

So .... you did something wrong, know what you did .... and know how to fix it?

Where's the beef?

I mean ... tech.

 

tech....

ARP flywheel bolts -- B series and D series are not the same even though they are the same bolt patterns. DOUBLE CHECK the items you buy because whomever sent them may not know the difference besides part #'s.

 

That blows man, but think how much smarter you are now.

Thanks for passing it on.
