Default spec light weight flywheels and the FX-400

They don't match up. spent most of saturday removing the transmission. ended up cutting my hand up pretty good on the horrible casting audi does on the tranny. needed 4 stitches.
the throw out bearing fork is cracked too. so much fun.
the worst part of the day was finding out that the Spec light weight flywheel for this kit http://www.h2sport.com/products.php?productid=736 does not line up with the Fx-400 part number 02-027-HDCB6-S, the bolt holes and pins don't line up. the Fx-400 is smaller than the spec flywheel. So, until I have money for a clutchmasters light weight flywheel I am down a car. probably for 2 months. During all this I probably chain smoked 15 cigarettes as I was soo pissed off.

from what I have researched, The spec kit that I had previously had a 240mm flywheel, The Fx-400 I have purchased requires a 228mm flywheel. I got to find a 228mm flywheel now.
