I have a 1986 300zx non turbo<br /> <br /> ----<br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Dunkine:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;small&gt;(2017-08-18 18:59:01)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> To remove the flywheel your going to have to separate the trans &amp; engine.<br /> <br /> ----<br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Riotforce:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;small&gt;(2017-08-19 21:24:06)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> The link I posted, would that be the correct fit?<br /> <br /> ----<br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Dunkine:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;small&gt;(2017-08-20 19:29:27)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> The link isn&#039;t working for me. Do you have a manual trans? Why do you want to replace the flywheel?<br /> <br /> ----<br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Riotforce:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;small&gt;(2017-08-20 22:03:34)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> Yeah it&#039;s Manuel. When I replaced my starter one day, I seen how chipped the gears were inside the hole where the starter gets bolted into. That would be the flywheel right? Well my car doesn&#039;t want to turn on. it makes a whining noise down there when I try to so I figured it was the chipped gear I seen<br /> <br /> ----<br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Dunkine:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;small&gt;(2017-08-21 22:07:13)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> Yep, flywheel. Could be missing teeth or starter drive gear isn&#039;t moving out to engage flywheel. You could pull the starter off and check it first.</div>
