Try a Gearbox Place or try your local nissan.

Do you still have your old one? if so take it to a machinist and get it machined AND BALANCED. get the new ring gear from Nissan and hey presto.

don't get em machined, they get very weak under heat and high power set ups.. they can shatter ect and cause damage plus very dangerous..wouldn't want to hurt other people on the road now or damage another nice car beside or behind you..
I got mine custom made but u get get em off shelf at NPC (Nicks Clutch & Performance) in brisbane.... like harmonic balanced lightened flywheels made outta steel which won't shatter under intense heat!!
I hope by Ninja u mean 50' cause thats why i wanna help hahahahaa works for me..

let me know how u go

hey unique etwho told u that if u machine flywheels they will get weak??? coz that person is a spastic or doesnt know how much is taking off a flywheel..a machine will cut maximum 5 - 10 1thousand's of a mm.. that is just scrapping the surface clean to have a new clutch plate face..new lightened flywheel will cost u 700 bucks plus n then HD clutch 200 bucks thats 900 bucks (only estimating) if u machine n new clutch ur only looking at 250bucks.. i had my flywheel machined n new heady duty clutch 3 years ago n i give it a hard time n NEVER had a problem..

rip easy if u need a NEW lightened flywheel n a clutch let me know I work for a brake n clutch company so i can get u anything. cheers.

ET87 is right, i didnt say get it "lightened" i said machined. Just machined so the surface is cleaned up n not rough.

Plus i got mine machined nothin wrong with it. And yes if you lighten it then it can shatter. a friend of mine races 1600cc cars and they race with super lightened flywheels and they HAVE to race with a guard around the flywheel just incase it shatters.

ahhhh tru, I got told by the man who owns NCP about the lightened flywheels being dangerous and not too effective..
I just took his word cause he had some high powered race cars (company cars) and he was a pretty straight forward guy, seemed like he knew what he was talking about and told me even for street application your looking at a pretty big risk with the stocko flywheels being lightened..
well I've noticed a massive rev power range increase after having this flywheel put in...
It's nice and shiny & weighs nothing almost and it's effective, after talking with him for ages and getting too know him I brought it for $400

by all means mate i wasnt tellin you what you should or souldnt be doin, just defining the difference between the two. I wouldnt mind doin a lightened flywheel, seein how different it is.
