this is the first time i have ever heard of this being said to totally eliminate crankwalk. Because crankwalk doesnt have to do with the balancer shafts. Those are only there just to do what they say. Balance the engine. The only reason people remove them is to take away the chance of the belts going and destroying the timing belt. And remove alittle wieght and excess moving parts. Crankwalk is something that starts with the extra load exerted on the thrust bearings by the low oil pressure and clutch. Which in turn begins to wear on the bearings and allow the crank to have play.

I really didnt think anything existed (with the exception of motor swaps) to totally eliminate crankwalk in 2gs. But, thats a hot car, and good luck with it... post pics

It's an auto though, crankwalk is more feared on manual cars. There's more stress in that area in a manual tranny then an auto.
One thing about the pics...the first one is the size of your sig, do you have a larger pic by chance?

Nice i like it. The two first things i would do to that car is lower it because the wheel gap is killin it. And put a front mount on cuz i really think your pushing that stock IC pretty hard
