Interchangeability of 6MT?

yes, that's the clutch line

When you say single mass flywheel, are you talking about a lightweight flywheel? As far as I know. no one makes a single mass flywheel. That being said, you may want to research farther into what you're getting into with a LWF. There's lots of debate on what it can do to the M96 motor. Jake Raby is completely anti-LWF and he's probably the best engine builder in the country. Now you have on the other side of the argument almost every guy racing as they all use them without any problems. It can be hard to decide what to do as they both make good points.

Do you know why is Jake anti-LWF? Is it just for street cars as for racing it seems fine?

the dual mass flywheel is dampened; a lw flywheel is not. jake has seen failures (broken cranks) which he attributes to the lack of dampening. the gt3 has a dampened drive pulley on the other end of the crank to compensate.

He also believes it retards timing. I by no means think I'm on any level as Jake but I have to disagree with him when it comes to a LWF. Every race car I know of races with a LWF and they don't have a high rate of crank failures. They also have their cars dyno'd and show the same amount of HP as the street cars. Again Jake's the master and I'm just a monkey who takes them apart. You'll have to make your own decision based on what you believe.
