Flywheel/Clutch Setup for V160/161 setups in the Toyota Supra Toyota implemented a Dual Mass Flywheel System with the clutches designed for the V160/161. These clutches are extremely capable with some people taking the clutches to 350RWKW which is 1.5 times the factory power. There are many aftermarket clutch options but if the dual mass flywheel is removed then clutch chatter becomes much more noticeable. Common issues with the getrag transmission are seals leaking (especially the selector seal) and a noticeable clunk after each gear change. The clunk is associated with the free play in the bearings and output shaft and is not to be worried about.
