I've been quiet and just observing , but I have lots of questions. Be patient with me as I love my 350z I just never took the time to understand cars. Yes I'm a girl. I have been known to race a few times at the race track. I think my clutch is unhappy. I only notice a glitch when excelerating without shifting. She has about 38,500 miles. I can't go and blow off steam with a potential clutch issue hanging over me. My question is about how much should I expect to pay for a new clutch? Any recomendations for replacements? First time poster of anything so I hope this ok to ask here. Thanks

Z Car Garage in San Jose does outstanding work, but that wouldn't be to easy for you to deal with. A few of us here race at Infineon on
