    When does the knocking noise happen? You checked the gear oil lately? Knocking noise could be coming from the inner CV joints if they are bad, although usually its more of a vibration felt through the wheels.

    It shouldn't technically work surely? a VTR Flywheel/Clutch is 200mm? and the 1.1 is 183mm? or 180 blah blah. I'd fuck the flywheel n clutch off.

    Thrust bearing is not usually a knocking noise, its more of a rattle, but it definately sounds like it with the symptoms you describe. A mismatch of parts usually spells problems, I'd fit the correct parts before they cause you possibly more problems.

    Youre better off picking up a flywheel from a breakers yard if they'll sell you it seperately, new ones can be pricey!

    thrust bearing is a fast knocking sound when it gets worse and worse, mine is just now.

    Course it will work LOL

    its just smaller in diameter thats all.. wont take as much torque through it, hence then 1.6's have a 200mm clutch.

    Using a 1.1 clutch will in be kinda like having a lightened flywheel... obv being smaller the 1.1 flywheel and clutch assy will weight less

    Wont last as long thou, especially if you abuse it!

    Your problem sounds thrust bearing.. or something not done up properly. Maybe flywheel wasnt properly seated on the end of the crank

    Rev counter not working is nothing todo with the gearbox... ecu gives the rev counter signal to the dash
