if you are close to stock, i woudln't go with a 6 puck clutch. Don't cheap out on a clutch/flywheel set up either. I personally wouldn't go with that kit.

I actually witnessed in person a "stage 3" XTD kit slip on the dyno with a Turbonetics kit... yet I know someone else local running a Turbonetics setup on stock clutch/flywheel without a problem.

my car is completely stock and the only reason im looking to go with this kit is so that i can do exhaust at the same time or i can just get a jwt kit for 200 more and no exhaust......if anyone has ran this kit and had no problems than i would appreciate the input and vice versa...

yeah, def don't get this clutch then. It would be horrible if you drove your car daily. 6 Puck clutches aren't fun..trust me. The JWT is much much better. Revs fast, holds up turbo and supercharger applications, and will drive better than stock.

No way in hell I would... I'll be installing an ACT fw/6 puck later this year. Do it right or don't do it at all.

If you buy crap and it craps out on you, thats just more money you'll be spending in the end.

If this is something you really want just spend the extra 300 and get JWT kit that you know for sure will be good. Cutting corners is what get's you in trouble.

look for reviews of this on my350z - based on that, make your decision.

A GOOD clutch/flywheel setup that is proven is not all that expensive relative to other mods, and peace of mind knowing that you've got a quality part installed is priceless

I too have been doing my research and everyone is pleased with the JWT setup. Definetely get the flywheel too though. I will be ordering mine Monday when the stealership calls and tells me the deal with my trans.
