Product Details

This Fidanza aluminum flywheel is built for your 1979-1983 Nissan 280ZX with the 2.8L engine. You'll get the flywheel itself, which is significantly lighter than the factory unit, and a replaceable hardened steel ring gear. This setup is designed to improve your car's performance by reducing rotational mass.

Fidanza makes these flywheels from billet 6061 T6 or 2024 T4 aluminum, and they're 40-60% lighter than stock. This lower inertia means your engine can rev up faster, leading to quicker acceleration and a more responsive feel when you get on the gas. The friction surface is heat-treated for durability and consistent grip, and it's a replaceable part, so you don't have to replace the whole flywheel when the friction surface wears out. They also use military-spec fasteners to ensure reliability.

This flywheel is a direct replacement for your stock unit, meaning it fits right without needing modifications. The stepped dowels are included on most applications to ensure proper alignment.
