Grand-Am Fly should outlast anything you are gonna throw at it on the street! Would make a nice tax-return present

A little chatter in neutral. At shut down with the clutch depressed or in neutral... Always.

A Venza just isn't the same as a ZHP.
No neutral chatter.
Shut down in neutral, yes, but not if clutch depressed.

2005 ZHP, Alcantara, Silver Cube, Nav, Sharked, BMW Perf Intake, BMW Perf CF Strut Brace, CF Valve/Fuel Rail Covers,
Shadowline Grills, CF Splitters, Fog Light Inserts, Euro-mirrors, CDV Delete, Beisan vanos, GAS DISA, BP Coded
Those responses are why I think this is limited to Six Speed transmissions. But it is not a bad thing, no harm is done to the car.
However with the extremely lightened flywheels, they are meant to have a load on them at all times, except when starting the race...You can get away with a few pounds on a DD, but I would never go as low as 8.5 pounds...That's ridiculous.
But the dual-mass flywheel is for the mass populations, so there are plenty of upgrades available for the enthusiast owner, but normal weight with a single mass is the best option for a lightly modded Daily Driver, IMO.

Bump. So are there any Lightweight SMF's still in production? Would love 20lbs, but the one in this thread seems discontinued now.
I DD a 15lbs flywheel, I'll have to check in the records who made it, but even though it was a learning curve I don't see myself going back from it. 8.5? Sounds a little extreme for DD purposes, the neutral chatter as is is already quite obnoxious, but imo it adds character :P
Interested to see which you go with, always good to remember this stuff for the next time mine needs to be replaced(knock on wood)
