Did you change both bearings? Each end of the shaft? Or just one?
Yes I change both bearings on input shaft, unfortunately I didn't change other 4 but pre load them with shims as new ones and they last not even a 1k miles.
Can anyone tell me which way big washers on both sides of fly should be bolted? as they not even and it must be a reason for it.
@Nick Mann will probably have an answer for this, although i think he uses a evo flywheel not a after market VR4 fitment one.
Bye for Now!
There is an exploded diagram somewhere, maybe the gearbox pdfs, that shows the order and orientation of the washers.
Ok make sense to do them all.
I have a nm spacer too I know the washer you mean I can't remember which way these go sorry
All what i manage to find is this but its still not clear to me which way this big washers/spacers no 5 and 7 should go, did you see any better diagram somewhere?

I was having a chat with Adam about this and the washers a sprung steel and they have a curved section at the outer edge of the washer. So if you fit them one way the washer will touch the fly wheel around the outer edge of the washer and create a small void between the fly wheel and the washer, fit it the other way and the washer face touches the fly wheel and the curver section at the outer edge of the washer curves away from the fly wheel into free space .
The crank pulley is smaller than the washer, so if you fit it with the curve towards the crank pulley it actually goes outside of the edge of the pulley.
This Is just a little more info to confirm the issue.
Now we can somise which way are supposed to be fitted from a logical point of view but Adam needs to know for sure which way round the go.
Thanks Davebasically question is, should they act as a damper or should the be solid? if they should be solid why mitsi make them in such an odd shape?
btw still struggling like **** to find a workshop who can skim my fly, shocking. Any one know any decent place? not matter if I have to post it as long as its done!

what about the place that got your head skimmed, is it the same process.
It requires different tool but will visit them and ask if they not do it they may point me in right direction, thing it they in Stretford so not so easy to get to in hours what Im free to go.
Are the input shaft bearings the same both ends of the shaft? And what's the best place to get them please?
no they are different.
any bearing supplier should be able to get ones to suit. download the W5M51 service manual.
What Adam says, but its v23 of common 6306 bearing and yes its easy to get 6306 bearing BUT not v23 of it, best bet would be mitsi dealers or amayama.
Ok last question are evo ones the same? Like here?

Yes they are the same
Small update, I eventually find a very good place who do heads and they did skim my fly, proper old school bloke in even older workshop, whole £25 later my fly is ready to go back on. Swinks clutch arrive too, and actually my previous one was exactly the same as this one.
