    Wow we have the same spec car! There are like only 56 in this color combo something like that for 88. They were the first ix in dealers I believe

      Jamie; Looks like you beat me to it...

      Does the RHD flywheel chatter? I'm about to put one in.

        Chris, barely. Every time i start the car, for the first minute it idles as if I had either a cam or a vacuum leak. But it could be do to no iac valve or a big exhaust leak I have. You can kinda hear a chatter when the idle drops low for a split second. It's not bad at all. I like have to listen closely for it. I really appreciate you telling me about RHD! I'm really happy with it. Thought it was going to chatter super loud or make it difficult to take off, but nope. It's awesome!

          Really!? Cause I've heard someone say that there were only 56 ix's brought into the US in 88' or something like that, but that can't be true! 🤔

            My first IX was the same spec as your car. I miss the Cardinal interior.

              Way more than that. The lightweight flywheel is a great upgrade.

              88's the best year! My 88 lachs over cardinal.

                Yea, I'm real happy with the flywheel!
                That thing is amazing, i wish mine had the plastic bumpers. Did you swap from another e30 or buy them online?

                    I pulled them off a junkyard car many years ago.
