Sleepy, speaking of slow shipping, has the weather been that bad in the northeastern US lately? I ordered some adapters and it was stuck in Ohio for a week because of bad weather, which doesn't really make sense.

The past week in Ohio has been great. All snow is almost gone, temps are 50s. No idea why they say bad weather here.

Do you have matching race belts for the passenger seat? If not i think you should so it's balanced

Hmmm... That's weird. I never had any issues with GMpartsdirect when I ordered parts from them. Granted they usually did take about a day or two to process and ship my order, but that's a reasonable amount of time to me. Especially when you consider that they do get a lot of orders and are shipping the parts from a GM dealer so they work normal dealer business hours. Once the parts did ship though, I usually received them in about 1-3 business days. Again that to me was a reasonable time frame. Now if they were taking like a week or longer to process and ship your order then I could definitely see why you would say they take forever to ship.

Its been a week long search!
I finally found a new flywheel for my car! Thank god!
The flywheel is discontinued, and the company who made them went out of business, so its very hard to find. Found one down in florida at a GMC dealer, working with my chevy dealer near me to get it up here for me!

So with that company being it of business, what about the upgraded stuff? Is there much aftermarket for that transmission that will last long term, or is another company making the parts etc?

There is a company called LUK that offers a clutch/pressure plate. But no one offers a "aftermarket" flywheel for the car. So anyone planning on doing a 6 speed swap now is kind of screwed...
And anyone with a 6 speed swap now who needs a new flywheel will also be screwed, including me down the road. I will just have to find a company in the future to make me a flywheel for the car with an old one.

Either that or they will have to go to a solid flywheel. What are you gonna do when your new flywheel goes bad?

I'm ordering one from SPEC, they have a great lightweight one for mine. They have replaceable friction plates so you dont have keep replacing it, just new friction plates plates. I'm going to go ahead and get it from mine, they want to re-surface it no matter what so by the time its done might as well get new one. Dont know if they have it for yours but SPEC seems to be the go-to for us 4 banger guys.

Spec offers some clutches for that transmission.
Tim, either way i need a new flywheel, its not suggested to get the dual mass ones resurfaced. So a g6 at a jy wouldnt do me any good
