This was a lightened OEM flywheel in a GTST skyline.

From what I've heard this is exactly what happens most of the time someone has an OEM flywheel lightened by way of removing metal...

Mind you, it could possibly happen to a faulty OEM unit as well.

This will happen when you consistently dump the clutch at high revs with a lightened flywheel:clapping:

Seen it happen to a rotor, funny to watch but sooooo dangerous:ohmy:

Thnx to Buddylove for spotting those pics.
i just stole them big_smile

I've seen this happen before, although it was a t5 behind a 304 in a commodore. scared the f*ck out of me and i was 15ft way. Blew the windscreen out of the car and exposed valves. it was a massive explosion. Really bad thing was, the fly wheel was an OEM fly wheel, unmodified.
