go with the fidanza. The additional 1-2lbs in weight of the fidanza compared to the Jun won't make that big of a difference. Also, if I'm not mistaken, the Jun is cromoly so you won't be able to resurface it while you will be able to resurface (or even replace)the steel friction surface of the fidanza.

i think the JUN you can probably resurface just once, but the workmanship and material is superb. i just want the flywheel that best justifies the cost. and ive never really heard about fidenza nissan products.

In your sig you list the findanza. Has it caused a Check Engine Light on your B14?

Well I wouldn't know, partly because it's not installed yet AND I already have a CEL light for something else. :)

Gets installed next week.

I would try and check for interference with the crank sensor before I crank that thing over. It might hit. I would bet you could shim it out or something. Also, you may want to disconect the sensor while you install it just to be sure it doesn't get knocked during install. Then re-install after you have it all together. Just an idea.

Actually since it was brought up. The Fidanza flywheel will throw a code on ur B14. Ive seen and heard of it. And it was already mentioned why further up ther thread so I wont repeat why.

I don't doubt that the fidanza is nice, but I know the JUN is MUCH stronger. I personally have the JUN and it's one of my favorite things I've done thus far

JUN is 9.2 lbs. Go with the JUN it is made by a more reputable company. You get what you pay for. I think the Fidanza is too light for a street car. You will end up hating life with it.

I have the Fidanza, and I love it. It is a little light, but if my wife can drive the car and not have any issues, them I'm happy, except for my speedo not working (stupid tranny swap connectors)
The saving of $ and being able to replace the inserts makes it a good performance mod for a B13

My experience with my 9.2 lb JUN tells me that the idle speed when coming to a sudden stop will fluctuate wildly. And the JUN is heavier than the Fidanza. I can only imagine that the fidanza will have an erratic idle worse than what I experienced with the JUN flywheel on my race car.

the overall weight is of less importance than the distribution of said weight. think about it.
