I just bought a flywheel from ezclutchparts.com on ebay and it doesn't bolt tight against the engine.has anyone bought this flywheel from here? does it need a thicker spacer or what? the old stock flywheel works fine it tightens before it bottoms out.

kits I've seen come with different bolts and washers.

Check your alignment. When installing mine from ECS, I was having some weird problems. Seems the bolt pattern isn't perfectly symmetrical all around. Rotate it until it fits nicely. And there should be a plate included that serves as a washer so when you tighten the flywheel up, the bolts don't dig into the soft aluminium.

And enjoy your new found drivetrain noises. If you lug the engine a little, makes some funny chattering sounds :-P. Keep it above 1800-2000 and it's pretty much as quiet as stock but more responsive.

can only bolt up one way. Had this problem with my fidanza, until I realized the offset hole. I was so mad when I thought the part didn't fit correctly...until I remembered that flywheel holes are usually offset a little to ensure the correct balance and such...but on a side note, mine didn't come with bolts or a spacer or anything. I just bought new bolts and tightened it up...no problems for me...
