As I was checking out another site which will not appear if I type it in... I came accross some great info

Apparently this company makes upgraded Valvetrain components and forged pistons for the V6 honda Accord, which are still based on the Same J series motors as our cars.

http://www.honda-performance.com

I sent them an email to see if they would make parts for our application and also inquired for Forged Rods.

This is good news as JE quoted me 750 for a set of pistons so I'll save 250 right there and Crower wanted 1150 for connecting rods.

Furthermore there happens to be a guy who has produced a Clutch kit for V6 Accords for the same price as comptechs (comptech does not include a pressure plate) but has been getting great reviews. I will be sending out my flywheel when the motor is pulled so they can produce alightened flywheel for our application as that is the only part the differs between ours and the 7th gen accord. Everything else is the same but we have a couple sensors on our flywheel.

Apparently these are almost readily available and can be produced in 3 weeks.

Just thought this was some good information as we are so limited due to hardly anyone manufacturing new products for our cars.

 

good info

 

make a flywheel!! man i've always wanted a lightened flywheel, but was never down to put out enough dough for the comptech. good stuff

 

hey man that site sucks... every time i open it up my virus scan finds a trojan that tries to infect files. lol

 

I thought you couldn't lighten a dual mass flywheel?

 

It won't be a dual mass flywheel, it will be similar to comptechs unit. They already have produced the kit for the V6 Accord, our Disc and Pressure plate are identical but our flywheel has a few sensors that differ from the AV6.

BTW the price is $1,200 for the entire kit.

 

^kit, as in clutch/pressure plate/ flywheel?

 

ok you got me yeah, this is the company i was trying to get a hold on to for my internals. I let you guys know what happen on my next project...

 

You can switch to a traditional flywheel and add a sprung clutch to achieve a similar dampening effect.

 

Wait isn't this the comapny that was advertising 30-40hp from a port and polish etc? Their site doesn't even work, at least for me. Looks a little shady to me.

edit: Managed to get the site to work and its not the same BS site that I saw a long time ago.
