i think most people will say to get the JWT clutch and flywheel

do you drive your car like a maniac 24-7 or something?...seems weird that the clutch would go this early

wow...how on earth did you kill the clutch so quickly?

We've been using the ACT clutches since forever on these cars...absolutely awesome to drive, pedal just slightly stiffer than stock, holds GOBS of torque, and the are very affordable. Team it with an ACT flywheel and you've got a great combo.

I bought my ACT street clutch and pro flywheel from Candaddy350z, and MAN what a difference. I recommend the ACT all the way. I can't believe how much more responsive this is. Worth the money!

What are people paying for an ACT clutch and flywheel install? My dealer quoted me $850 - about as much as the clutch and flywheel itself. Yikes!

Fidanza makes the clutch and pressure plate for JWT, and alot of other aftermarket sellers, save yourself some money!! If you're going to do this, make sure you put a lightweight flywheel (aluminium). You WILL feel the difference! Have areputable clutch shop install it. I used Clutchmaster for $300.
