The comptech friction disk I ordered off a member here is no good! When the mechanics tried putting it in with the Ur flywheel and oem pressure plate it didn't work. So now Im stuck and I don't know what to do with the clutch, and I need one that fits with the UR flywheel! I NEED HELP ASAP

 

oh, and i guess i need to sell the comptech friction disk now.

 

Well, found out today that there is no other clutch that is compatible w/ the ur flywheel, and the comptech piece is just no good. Ima try to contact the guys at comptech and see if the friction disk was made to go w/ their flywheel b/c i dont think it was made to go w/ the oem one (dual mass)?

 

Do you have a picture of the UR Flywheel? Here's one I found of the Comptech Flywheel. Notice the center is open to accomodate the sprung hub?

 

i should take a pic of the ur, but it should be on their website. The ur flywheel definetly doesnt have the opening like the comptech

 

hey jeff, found a site that has a pic of the flywheel:

http://www.customcarscentral.com/unr...l--01-03-.html

 

If that's the actual CL Flywheel, you're right. There's not much room. It's hard to gauge the depth but it kind of looks shallow. It's also missing the center section that has the pilot bearing.

 

Interesting, call up Unorthodox Racing ASAP and ask them, you can also try calling Clutch-masters.

 

yea, i tried. UR tech is useless, and it seems that the only thing that will work is the oem friction disk

 

Yeah UR can be apathetic at times, especially when you ask if they're working on a clutch kit for us Honda V6 guys
Im sure the space will allow it but now you wont have a sprung clutch or a dampened flywheel, hopefully your OEM crank pulley is still on your car. Either way try giving a call and ask them about it, or try returning the UR flywheel.

 

i have the oem pulley on still or else i would be in trouble

 

Cool, just checking

Guess your going to have to go with a solid hub clutch disc or return the flywheel

 

solid hub is awesome,you just gotta get the hang of the instant engagement! yeah is the way to go(909)877-6800 ask for joze or lonny, he(they) are familiar with the layout of this clutch,I sold siggy my one off setup now in his accord j32 swap. I owned it for abot 2 years and loved it! or return that flywheel and get a full setup..and give me some rep points please,all these a-holes give me - for being honest and sticking up for people..

 

went to the shop today after work and it turns out they already swapped the new engine. What do you mean by solid hub?

 

New engine?

solid hub refers to the lack of torsional springs in the clutch disk.

 

I had a post a couple months ago about my engine being blown so I finally got a new one in there, and the flywheel is already in as well.

 

Oh well hope you have lots of luck with it, I am with mine

 

It blows me away that they would design this to only work with an unsprung hub friction disk. Why go through the effort of designing a flywheel and create so many limitations around it.

 

seriously, i dont get it either

 

So are you going to try and return the flywheel in light of this new information?

 

im going to try to talk to ur again and get something out of them. jeff is right though, why even put a flywheel like this into production?

 

True its pretty stupid considering teh got rid of the OEM flywheel's NVH properties and now they expect you to do the same with the clutch? Why? They even made it 12lbs to be "more streetable" the two ideas contradict each other.

 

so i talked to ur again and they say the same shit. oh, well, this flywheel hasnt have enough production to ever run into something like this and we can look into it further but I guess your only bet would be w/ a non-sprung hub. I told them about the comptech friction disk and they didnt have any answers. My car is about ready to go and im not sure if i want to go through any more trouble of taking shit out and putting shit back so i just might keep the flywheel on. that wouldnt be a problem would it?

 

if they dont make a very strong disk(backing plate and contact material) you will have trouble and the clutch may only last you only a couple of months of normal use, send your flywheel to and have it notched and you can use the comptech disk and have a lighter flywheel.

 

clu t c h ma s te r s

 

i put it in the original reply but somehow that word got erased??

 

doesnt have anything for an 3.2 cl. Where would i take my flywheel to have it notched? When you say the friction disk not being strong enough, i thought the oem ones were fine?

 

so r u saying the comptech friction disk could work?

 

I would be very cautious on machining out the UR Flywheel to accomodate the sprung hub on the Comptech friction disk.

 

I got you covered Allout

Translation:

LOL - I've seen what damage an exploding flywheel can cause. I'm probably overly cautious but...

 

I think im not gonna go that route

 

hey jeff, i dont know if you read my other thread but what should I do about the crank sensor? Shop says its fucked!?

 

Does the 98-02 6speed V6 Accords share the same trans as the 6speed CL type-s? If it does then the ACT clutch and flywheel will fit right? I check it out on there web site.

 

dont notch the aftermarket flywheel,notch the original on the sides,not the center! clutch- masters will do it for you, you will still be able to use your comptech disk and lighten your flywheel a little, may not be much but its something! nick didnt marcus have that done to his over at c-m

 

and get the non-self adjusting pressure plate from them as well,much much better than the o.e....

 

if it is just change it,if not your gonna send other shit to hell- real quick!

 

I don't know if its me but I don't remember who Marcus is

 

the dude with the blue accord(supercharged) ziggys buddy? isnt that his name?

 

your right it was shawn right?
