I've had my 03 Touring for almost 3 years now and I want a new clutch but want a reliable upgrade and not another basic stock clutch. Any ideas on where I can get a reliable upgrade and not get ripped off?

I just swapped out the factory clutch on my '06 for the JWT clutch kit. This includes the JWT lightened flywheel, the clutch disk and the JWT pressure plate. Most kits come with the needle pilot bearing and the braided stainless clutch hose that replaces the stock rubber one. I also opted to replace the stock pivot ball with a new chromoly one. The install only took a couple of days at the local Nissan Dealer near me in the Dallas area. They were gracious enough to do the replacement work for $700 labor. They met the price of a local speed shop in the area.

For me the JWT clutch has stiffer pressure plate spring so I get a slightly heavier clutch pedal feel but it not intolerable. A worthy exchange in my opinion. Paid about $830 for the clutch kit, needle pilot bearing and new chromoly pivot ball from CZP in Arizona. They are expedient in order and shipping. Thumbs up to them for fast delivery. You may end up spending $1500 or so to get this done. I'm happy with my new setup. Shop around a bit and choose wisely.

I hope this helps.

+1 on the JWT kit, I'm not a fan of the light weight flywheel but I got over it, and really for the price you cant beat it. Take a look at any of the vendors here on the sight and I'm sure that you can get a pretty good deal on it.
