An observation....
This is an inertia damper. Adding mass takes effort to get it into motion and/or stop it once in motion. That said the fact that some weigh the same but behave different is perhaps because one has the mass centralized in board while the other has it further out from the center yet they weigh the same. Possible?
There is the old quote; Objects in motion tend to stay motion.
As Jeff pointed out the 2011 up AWD get them but not sure if F-Sport did or not?

Ordered IS-F damper
Found the damper on eBay for $31
Sourced the screws from Toyota dealership for $3.50
I also have a perforated leather steering cover with blue stitching arriving in a couple weeks.
this should be a fun project lol

just install mine on my 2006 IS350. I immediately felt the difference. wasn't too heavy but definitely has its weight to it. the steering wheel doesn't have those little vibrations that it used to have. i didnt think the steering wheel vibrated too much before although i did feel a little bit of vibration. but now with the damper i just started realizing how much it really vibrated before since theres practically no vibration now. worth the install especially for $30. i got my 2012 ISF power steering ECU on the way. can't wait to get that installed as well
