The Exedy Hypersingle will not work with a Fidanza flywheel. The flywheel included in the hypersingle kit is specifically designed for the clutch and pressure plate. Plus, it's already a lightened chromoly anyhow, so the Fidanza is not necessary. If you have a Fidanza already, sell it and then use the funds towards the Exedy.

Well, it looks like I'll be here awhile longer! No replacement for me so it'll be awhile before I can meet up with anyone!

thanks for the info...the only reason is bc i can get a new exedy hyper single clutch disc and pressure plate for $250...but the flywheel was dropped and chipped off some of the teeth...so I wanted to contact exedy about getting a replacement fw..but their site is down..i emailed exedy europe though......waiting for a response......

Yeah, that's gonna be a no go because they are very different. I have personally owned the stock one, the Fidanza, and the Exedy one so I can confirm that one. If you can score a new flywheel from them, then you should be set though.

Well damn man, that sucks! But I did work out a deal with Area47 so as soon as I get HPTuners I will have some Area tunes for the locals here!

Since I am splitting the money with him since he's the one doing the work! At least untill I feel more comfortable with it!

I don't need a tune, but I am very curious to see what he would do different in comparison to myself. I wish I could make a tour and learn from him, witt, and paul. I think with all of them together, tuning would become a lot easier and some crazy power would be made!

I can show you the easiness of flashing people cars if needed. Tuning isn't really hard unless the customer doesn't have a wideband.

That is fine... I was hoping to get you and 2K5SS/SC??? to help me out so I don't bug Area everyday!

But yeah he has showed me a few things here and there, but I do have "some" basic tuning knowledge but HPT is just laid out so much different!

i'd like to join in the fun as well. I'm sure we all could learn a thing or two from each other.

I'm down for whatever... I'm just not familiar with the area too much yet! I should have my HPT here in a few weeks from what I have heard it takes 2-3 weeks to get it... so that is what I am waiting for... Area is going to send me some patches and such so that everything works!

Damn I won't be back in time to hit The Rock! Plus, I wouldn't have my Integra back together anyhow for racing since the Cobalt is now retired from the track.

I have to man! Tranny's are getting expensive and every time I hit the track something breaks! It drives me nuts and is getting costly. Plus, the Integra is a manimal on the track!

Quarter mile tracks are not easy to come by down here. Most are 1/8th mile which usually requires a completely different setup.
