Default What upgrades for clutch/flywheel?

Which upgrades do you guys know of that are immediately available for the following

Clutch
Flywheel

any other tranny mods?

My tranny went out and all the labor is free so I'm trying to get a quick mod list together for order tomorrow.

I called all day long. Noone has the Flywheel OR the Clutch upgrade yet. So much for "DA LIST"!! Nothing on DA LIST is available yet.

I just heard from SGP Racing, it will take 3 weeks to get the O.S. Geiken flywheel clutch since they don't stock it.

I appreciate the reply about the SPL, I'll give them a call.

Nissan said they would install the upgraded clutch and flywheel for an additional $85 when they have the tranny out so I'm desperately trying to find something.

YET!!!

I know Kuah personally and he stock very very little and I know for a fact he doesn't have the JUN Flywheel in stock....just FYI

WHAT!?!?! To bolt a new clutch and flyheel on with the tranny out takes all of about 15 minutes. $85 is WAY overpriced!!

I was just about to comment on this too. It shouldn't cost anymore than $50 tops unless there's something different about replacing the clutch and flywheel on the Z while the tranny is out.

$20, $50, $85? Its all pennies to me compared to if I were to have to rip the tranny out again to make the mods. Some Nissan dealers won't even do mods like this so $85 is minimal.

true when put that way I guess yer right. I guess for those of us capable of doing it ourselves (this sounds mean, I, in now WAY, mean it to be.) it just seems high. Let us know how that lighter stuff works out for ya, it's DEF. on my mod to-do list.
