Fidanza Flywheel opinions

i hope to replace my clutch by early spring and i've been thinking about getting a flywheel to go with it. i'm thinking fidanza mostly because the others seem too light. i'm hoping to get some feedback from people who have them as to whether it's worth it or not, any problems that came up (stalling, bad idle, etc.) and just some general reactions.

I got the Fidanze.......and I dunno if IT's causing my starting issue...but I hope not

If it is, I hope I can fix it...if I cant fix it, Ill be going back to stock.

I dont feel like going in depth about my starting issue......but it acts like the starter teeth skip the flywheel teeth on crank ups...but it will eventually crank.

sorry to hear about your problem, but aside from that how has it been, it'd be nice to know in case the fidanza isn't your problem. unless of course there isn't much other experience...

No problems at all for the few years I had it on. Sorry cant really compare it to stock since I never really drove with a stock flywheel before but the revs do drop faster so you have to shift fast or rev match it.

Not a fan of em, based mostly on cost. Gains are minimal, cost is pretty high, and install is difficult for such small gains. If you do alot of road racing or autoXing it may be worth it for the increased ease of rev match downshifting, otherwise I'd say spend the money elsewhere.

I have installed lightened flywheels in both of my maximas when i had the clutches replaced....if you like driving your car hard and rev-matching(as stated above) its a lot better....otherwise 300 bucks to free up a couple, if even that much, horsepower isnt the wisest decision....to me its just makes the drivability better.

Has anyone else heard about the problem with the crankshaft sensor not working perfectly with the Fidanza flywheel, or is that just a rumor?
