I am using a Carbonetic triple plate clutch/light weight flywheel.Took me a little bit to get use to it (no feathering of the clutch it's ether in or out) I used the Jim Wolf clutch and flywheel before I got the motor built.I was recommend the triple plate by a lot of people who run medium to high boost on their Z's.

I had the 2+, which is sometimes referred to as the stage 3. This is the same clutch Tom has in his G35 and Blake has in his APS single Z. Spec puts out a decent clutch and I liked mine. I can tell you that this clutch feels better when used with a stock flywheel vs the lightened one you can buy from spec. It should hold around 500tq.
Steve runs an ACT clutch and seems to be happy with it. There are a lot of good clutches for this application. clutchmasters, ACT, spec, exedy, ATS (Carbonetics). I would recommend anyone of them... though my personal preference is an ATS multi-disc carbon
the only clutch I would not recommend is the JWT clutch.... engagement point is just too low

It's just a y pipe off any 07+ HR 350Z. Probably can find them cheap, so I'm gonna look into it. Otherwise, I'm thinking about going with the TopSpeed. Worst case scenario, a weld cracks... in which I just reweld it.
Motordyne's exhaust systems are nice and yield great gains from what I've seen, but I hate that tip.

I have an odd question for anyone here. I'm flying out to Arizona to spend a week at my brothers this coming Thursday the 19th and was wondering if anyone would allow me to park my car and possibly catch a ride to and from the Airport so as to avoid the retarded cost of airport parking for a week and I have less to worry about something happening to my car while I'm gone. Thanks in advance. If you are interested in helping me I'll let you know my flight information to and from.
