Default Flywheel pilot bearing

So i know the OEM wheel does not use a pilot bearing. I am looking at fidanza flywheels and i'm getting really confused. Several people have said that their h22 flywheels from fidanza use a pilot bearing. However, when i contacted some stores they said the flywheels do not come with a pilot bearing. Looking further into it even on ebay from sellers like gripforce they do not include a pilot bearing. Could someone shed some light on the requirements?

The reason why is because i have a exedy clutch already in great shape, i just want to know when i order the flywheel seperately i don't need the pilot bearing because as far as gripforce and a few other sellers are concerned their is no bearing included in the prelude clutch kit or flywheel kit.

My Fidanza flywheel doesn't have a pilot bearing. Any F or H flywheel doesn't come with one. Only D & B series engines have them.

Stock H-series flywheels have a pilot bushing not a bearing. If you can pop the old one out of your stock flywheel and push it back in the new one then you should be set.

Correct the h22 uses a pilot bushing instead of a bearing just like the k20.

agreed mine is def a bearing and not a bushing so i dunno what to tell you. i guess some come with bearings and some come with bushings. I do have a stock flywheel laying around i'll take a look at that one and see what it has.

Well i went to the dealership before i made this thread and they said the oem flywheel has a brass bushing. I bought a fidanza flywheel a few years back and it did have the bearing. However, the kits i am seeing now and even the flywheels sold seperately don't seem to have the bearing. Even when i ask the sellers they are telling me they do not include it. Basically i'm uber confused. I bought the flywheel already though so i guess i will see what comes with it when it gets here.
