ok i got a 85 gsl-se and installed a indigo alm flywheel and act clutch it was a kit from srx7. all went smooth but the rod in the slave wouldnt mate with the fork, ok then i bleed the clutch and ajusted the linkage under the dash... this helpded it mate to the fork but the clutch will not disengage. srx7 just says to ajust the linkage under the dash.... its almost all the way out right now. i even went as far as putting a nut inside the slave so it moves the rod out another 1/4-1/2" . it sits fine and is mated to the fork good but the dam thing seems not to push far enuff to disengage the clutch. WTF? i have droped the tranny 2 times checking ****. the parts all seem to be right and look the same size as the stock units that were removed. anybody had this issue? srx7 is being NO HELP!

 

not disengaging is a usual problem with any aftermarket flywheels. I no longer use aluminum but in the past, in my cars including customers, I have installed an aluminum spacer between the rear counterweight and the flywheel. the spacer is as wide as the counterweight's smallest section. Prior to that, I was placing a shim between the flywheel and pressure plate. Either way will allow the pressure plate to move closer to the t/o bearing.

 

well i can say i had a problem with a act disc we put in my se i have a clutch masters plate from the old pos that only lasted 4000 miles grrrr lol when they put the act disc in the center where the grooves are was like an 1/8 inch taller car wouldnt start maybe that will help

 

Hows about light weight steel flywheels? Any problems with those? I was thinking about getting the racing beat one for my t2 motor but I also noticed act has a new line of light weight flywheels. Don't know if they make one for the t2 motor or not.

 

if you gotz turbo, don't worry about liteweight flywheel.

 

I have done a good doz. light flywheels on other peoples cars...and my 81 this is the 1st problem i have had with any of them. i did finally get somewhat of a responce from srx.... after i told tech monkey boy on the phone that a 4 ft pry bar wouldnt get the fork to move any more than the stock hydrolics. his reply was "from time to time the fly wheels are a little larger than needed/spec and this will cause the pressure plate springs to hit. so i was told to remove the tranny and clutch and look on the fly for any marks that the p.plate springs made.... then "gring/sand" away on the flywheel where the marks are so it wont hit...

ok what ****** *** CLOWN wants me to get the flywheel and un balance it... yea its gonna be a small amount but still its outa balance. #2 why the hell do I have to to do **** to a brand new clutch kit that was 700$+ #3 and i bet they would do this if i grind/sand on the flywheel im voiding my warrenty. in my opention they suck srx7 that is I had to call them 4 times over 3 days and even thought they said they would get tech support to call me back they never did call. this is basiclly a error from indigo and just crappy support from srx7. I wont ever recomend them to ANYBODY and if asked i will voice my complaints. the other time i got something from them i was straight out lied to. I was wondering a few things about ther 1" core alum fb rad. they told me what i wanted to hear and then didnt even try to offer any compentation for it. al i asked was if it had the mouints for the stock fan shroud, oil cooler and the holes were cut on the rad for its mounting. i was told yes on all and it didnt have ****.

 

srx7 is stupid, they are going to loose alot of customers just because there too cheap/lazy to make things right with you. Word gets around, I certainly won't buy a flywheel from them. If they would bite the bullet and take the 700 dollar loss (there cost much less), they would prevent losing a much larger amount in lost sales down the line.

 

oh if i am asked about them i let my past dealings with them be known. I mean the fly wheel is a error in production. and a slack *** tech person. the rad. was a out right lie. they most deff. need to get some **** over a lie but bad parts do happen from time to time... ive gotten bad parts from the toyota dealer

 

Bad parts do happen but they are not willing to exchange it for a proper flywheel right?

 

you are correct. I (the installer) called and was told its a flywheel issue and to grind on it to make it work.... and TIM (the owner) called and they told him it was a pressure plate issue and to grind on that. If it was mine and my $$ i would bitch and raise major hell and get my $$ back. the only thing that they will have to eat is some shipping costs. but NO they are to ****** good to even do that. so im not a srx7 fan.

 

i guess thats the nicest way i can say
