the best clutch for stock Z
what would be the best cluth for stock Z..
i dont have any plans of modifiying it.. i was talking to a friend of mine about me changing the clutch and he told me if i get heavy duty clutch it will be harder and it will be differnet since ur car is not modified.
since mine is too hard and the dealers told me that i have to change it and they charged me around 1700$ for OEM clutch .. so i decide to buy aftermark one which have lighter flywheel and better disk..
what do u think is the better clutch set for stock car.. and should be smooth one . cause we have tooo much traffic in Dubai and u may be stuck in 1 or 2 hours traffic .. so the smoother the clutch the better.
i would really appreciate your advice guys
thanks alot

So what was the reason for your clutch pedal being so stiff? If you do not have plans in the near future for modify your car but might want to consider something with more capacity than stock without sacrificing drivability, then I would suggest the JWT combo. Nismo would be a good choice also but IMO since you are going to spend the money you might as well get something that can hold more power later down the road. The JWT is very easy to drive so you'll have no problems.
Edit: If you want something that's not from the US (JWT ACT) you might want to look into Exedy. They have a stage 1 organic with lightened flywheel that's not too bad

Stock clutch is good to around 450-500hp max. If youre worried about a clutch being hard I wouldnt dive too far into aftermarket. A heavy duty aftermarket clutch will break your leg for the first week trying to shift
PERSONALLY Id get this
Spec Stage 3+ Clutch for 2003+ Nissan 350Z
Part # Spec SN353F
STAGE 3+ - For heavily modified street and race engines making more torque than the stage 3 can support. Offers good daily drivability and better manageability than the stage 3, with even better wear characteristics.
High clamp pressure plate, full-faced carbon metallic friction, high torque sprung hub and disc assembly, bearing and tool kit.
Torque Rating: 660 ft/lbs.
Even if you say you arent planning on modding now, trust me your day will come and you might as well start off with something with a higher than average torque rating. THeres nothing worse than getting an engine built only to destroy the clutch on the first launch.
