Question JWT clutch question

I'm looking into getting a JWT clutch and flywheel due to its popularity and quality, and on the conceptz website you have the option to choose between an 03 or an 04-06. The thing is i have an 03 Z but i recently swapped the transmission to a CD-009 due to synchro grinding. I'm unsure which clutch kit i should get. Can a knowledgeable person shed some light on this for me? Thanks in advance.

You'll use 04-06. The 03 trans has a longer pivot ball than the others.

by the JWT website , they have 3 different flywheel for the 350z ..
you should get the one that will fit your year

each of those 3 flywheel has a different encoder wheel

FYI read this ; http://www.jimwolftechnology.com/wol...GEN-2-ONLY.pdf

by not getting the right one. your engine wont be working properly.
so I suggest you to stick to an 03 flywheel if your 350z is an 03

Solid question. I'm planning to swap my 03's CD008 to a CD009 and do the JWT Clutch/Flywheel combo at the same time. Hopefully I can figure out what parts are needed...

03-06 are the same, 07 is when it changes. I ordered mine from IPP.com. Its listed from 03-06 when you order it. I have an 03 with the cd09 trans. http://www.importpartspro.com/jwthdclco03n.html

No. With all due respect you told me i need an 03 flywheel. That'd be all well and good if somebody else hadn't told me it doesn't matter. Also you mentioned nothing about the clutch.

Does the kit include a stainless line and new pivot ball? To my knowledge the pivot ball is the reason they need to know the year. But with a cd009 you'll already have the newer clutch fork and pivot ball. So you'll go 04-06.

I thought the three flywheels were vq35de rwd, vq35de fwd, and vq35hr
