looks like i'm buyin the stillen flywheel :(
 
nobody has any flywheels in stock and maxximum tuning isn't answering their phone, so it's lookin like i'm about to order the stillen one. they're the only people that have one in stock. . . . this is gonna be expensive. . . *sigh*

So what's up w/ the injectors? And why not get the stock one lightened? It's not as light as an aluminum one(16lbs vs 12lbs ish) but it's alot cheaper.

oh shoot, forgot about those. . . . i dunno. . . crap. . .. lol

i don't know where i can get my flywheel shaved. everywhere i call won't do it. we've tried a few machine shops and they said it's a problem because it's balanced. . . .

Jeff92se Apr 1, 2002 11:29 AM

Ah what? Dunno? I'm not trying to harp on you, was just curious to see what's happening. If you are short on cash, I don't think spending $400+ on a flywheel if you still have injector problems. Just my o2.

totally cool man, i got a junk yard injector to get me by. the thing is i'd like to have all 6 cleaned ya know. . . . I'm just trying to figure out finances and stuff. as for now lets say i don't need em just cause i don't want to jerk you around saying i want em and never buy em, but if everything works out i will get ahold of ya and we'll work out $ and stuff. I'm sorry man, i just don't wanna jerk ya around ya know. . .

The machine shops are giving you crap.. they're the ones that are supposed to balance it!

tell them to get the sumb!tch resurfaced, lightened, and balanced. it'll cost you about $75. take your new pressure plate with you when you drop it off, so they will have it available to do the balancing. If they tell you they can't balance it, then they shouldn't be in business- that's their job.

The flywheel its only for manual or works with autos?

Sith Apr 1, 2002 10:20 PM

AASCO just made a huge batch of Flywheels. i know cause mine was the first one out. They made one batch but there were screwed up so they had to scrap them and make more and i had mine overnight delivered to me. What # are you calling. If i remember right their shop phone isn't hooked up yet. If you need his home phone or anything let me know. or his e-mail.

flyry110 Apr 2, 2002 07:05 AM

i called Unorthodox directly and they said it would take 2-6 weeks for production. i called maxxima tuning and he just gets it from them. or as far as i know. if anyone knows him and could give him a call i'd really appreciate it. maybe i asked about the wrong flywheel.

thanks!

Sith Apr 2, 2002 07:15 AM

Yeah i'll call him when i get home from work. I've been meaning to call him anyways.

flywheel is for manual only...flexplate is for autos.

flyry110 Apr 2, 2002 08:32 AM

thanks sith, i really appreciate it!

Sith Apr 2, 2002 05:51 PM

kk
just got off the phone with PJ. He said he was in New York yesterday. But he said give him a call tomorrow anywhere from 11:00 to 8:00. He said he'd be there all day.
try calling this # aswell 908-688-7796.

flyry110 Apr 2, 2002 07:40 PM

did he say they had any though? they emailed me and told me it would be 10 days before i could get one. thanks for calling though man. i appreciate it. :) us max guys stick together :)

Sith Apr 2, 2002 10:03 PM

no he didn't. When you call him, He'll let you know whats going on, then call AASCO and see if they have some. then call you back and take your information. AASCO should have some, cause they just got done mass producing them when i was trying to get mine. If they don't then there's alot of people buying them that aren't speaking up on the org :D
i would give you AASCO's # directly but i lost it. :(

flyry110 Apr 2, 2002 11:21 PM

ok, so here's the deal. stillen had one in stock, ready to ship AND dean hooked me up with a price of 450 bucks. which isn't too shabby. it'll be at the shop by friday also. so it worked out. thanks for calling bud, he told me it would take 10 days to get one to my door, and normally that would be fine, but i need my car back. that's how i get to class. anyway, i found a site that has teh AASCO flywheel for under 400.

http://www.optauto.com/webstore/

i have no idea about service, but custom maxxima seemed like they were very friendly and helpful. they might have even come down on price. i don't know. but i thought i'd show this site as well. . . thanks again sith for all the help!

Sith Apr 3, 2002 07:00 AM

no problem man. Hope everything goes well.
oh and once you get it on. Be prepared for a screaming car, and a SOB of a car to launch. :)

flyry110 Apr 3, 2002 08:02 AM

screaming being good right? lol :D

Sith Apr 3, 2002 04:06 PM

lol
screaming as in you better watch the tach or your gunna bounce off the rev limiter the first time you do a punch in first gear.
:D
