tranny and flywheel
let me start out that i have searched but theres to many threads and i cant get a solid answer so if you can point me to thread that would be great to.
okay now i have a s5 engine im dropping in my car and i want to put the s4 5sp tranny on it, do i have to have an s5 flywheel? if so are the s4 and s5 trannys the same and a s5 flywheel will attatch to a s4 tranny, i have harness and ecu so am i missing anything else?
any help would be fantastic thanx.

The stock flywheels have a counterweight built in that is matched to the weight of the rotors. This is why you need an S5 flywheel on an S5 motor and an S4 flywheel on an S4 motor. S5 Rotors are a bit lighter then S4.
You will need the S4 mounting bracket to mount the transmission to the car because the S4 and S5 mounts are different on the transmission side.
Other then that you can put an S4 tranny on an S5 motor, and an S5 tranny on an S5 motor.

i assumed and heard that they were counter wighted, ut then something confused me.
RB and other manufacturers sell light weight flywheels! does that mean you would have to buy the light weight counterweight and tear apart an engine for a "tranny" job!? that sounds rediculous.

If you put a light weight flywheel you have to use a auto tranny counterweight on it.
