Default Clutch be-gone.

So my 2004 350z clutch finally went and I'm considering the JWT Clutch/Flywheel combo. (2004-2006) And I'm probably going to get it from this site http://www.conceptzperformance.com/C...on.php?II=2223.
My question is... I have about 1000$ to spend on a clutch and flywheel. Does anyone recommend anything else? My car is fully stock and I'm looking for more pull. Let me know what you guys think.

I did the same thing. JWT combo from the same site. They are awesome. Great customer service and fast shipping. As for the clutch, its great. One thing I could do without is the chatter, but Performance > Chatter any day.

Good to hear! And did you happen to upgrade the clutch cylinder as well? I hear it may cause problems or funny feelings in the pedal if you don't.

I am ordering my JWT flywheel/clutch with a wilwood clutch cylinder on Friday. I'll probably have it in on Monday or Tuesday. And I'll let everyone know what I think.

Okay sooo. After a long week I got my clutch/flywheel/cylinder in. It's a huge difference in performance, and that's taking it easy due to the fact it's new. It definitely makes a lot of noise but it's a beautiful sound and it's a huge plus to me. BUT... I have a check engine light for a couple of Crankshaft position sensors being over advanced. Going to see what I can do with that. I'll keep people posted if anyone is interested.

when changing out the clutch from stock to stg 2 should you upgrade master and slave cylinders and about the flywheel get it machined or go for a lightweight

You'll be happy with the JWT Clutch/Flywheel combo. I have been very satisfied with it in my 350Z and holds up great as I am modded a little (491 hp) and have never had a problem at all. Enjoy...
