You're doing it wrong lol. The GMPP clutch is for the LSJ cobalt not the LNF lol.

But it works JUST FINE on the LNF and holds more than stock.

Zzp has a kit and flywheel for cheap on their website.

been hearing stuff like this about many of zzp's parts as of late. Are they going to the cheap side with everything lately or has it now become common knowledge that this is what they are doing?

I went with the GMPP from CED, and paired it with a LuK LFW285 flywheel. No problems so far after 1k miles. The stock clutch **** out on the dyno at 77k miles at 322whp/334wtq slipping like crazy. I didn't stick it back on a dyno but had Dave finish the tune on the street. I can't give you exact numbers but it definitely is holding more than the last dyno run.

I'm pretty sure zzp doesn't use some cheap flywheel. It works fine for me. Never had an issue.

Def interested in the flywheel you used, please keep an update going. I'm about to buy one just to throw on a shelf for when I need to change my clutch

Idk about the ZZP one, but the LuK part is stamped made in Germany. Looked exactly the same as the factory one coming out when I laid them side by side. I still have the factory one, thinking about getting it resurfaced and holding onto it for a backup.


Edit: ECaulk, I'll try and do a long term review of the combo as I get more miles on it.

OK, I had done a search for that and the part on Amazon came up and listed it as made in China. So who knows?

The pictures are hard to make out, but mine looked exactly like this one.

http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/sk...LUKLFW285.html

Has the LuK logo, made in Germany, and part # stamped into the backside. Now I'm not saying that there aren't some made in China, it's possible, but I got the one pictured. Like my edit said for ECaulk, I'll try and make a long term update how this part combo works and we'll see how viable the LuK part is.

Hey guys,

Just wanted to clear up stuff. Our flywheel is not 'some cheap china stuff' as said in the thread. Our flywheel IS an OEM flywheel. We are able to save on it, and are therefore trying to extend that to you all as well. So much so that we are having trouble keeping them in stock.

I don't care much, but the description on your website literally says "This is a new aftermarket OEM replacement flywheel." So which should I believe?

Aftermarket OEM spec is very different from OEM. Usually OEM spec means it fits.

If it is a legit OEM flywheel I'd suggest changing your verbiage on the website. I've done business with you and i was very pleased so I have nothing against you. This post just seems like misrepresentation with how the wording is on the website.

Thanks I ordered the kit from Summit and had them price match so it came to 283.99 shipped. I also plan on going with the Luk Flywheel. Anything else I need? Alignment tool?

Clutch alignment tool, clutch pipe, distribution/bleeder block, flywheel bolts, and possibly pressure plate bolts. The pic on Summits site shows only the TOB, PP, and clutch disc. If you had bought it through CED you would have gotten the clutch pipe, alignment tool, and the PP bolts for the same price, then all you would need are the flywheel bolts, and the distribution/bleeder block.


Edit: It should come with the PP bolts, but it might not.
