clutch on the nismo feels just like its supposed to. The TO bearing makes a little noise intermittently though, I'll let you guys know if something goes wrong but I think everything is fine.
Clutch pedal probably needs a little more fine tuning to get rid of the excess freeplay(I know freeplay is necessary but I think I have more than enough). Getting rid of 5mm of freeplay would be make it perfect.

I must say WCN is the best dealership I've been to.

Cloud, don't worry as the clutch breaks in and once engagement point settles at about half way, the excess free play will dissapear.
Just give it about 300-500miles.

I'm 80% certain that you can make from san jose to west covina in one full tank. So I am thinking you would have to fill up 2x for a round trip. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

I guess you could say that. However with the prices we got from WCN we couldnt pass up a drive to socal. Nothing like driving the "Z" cross country, it will be an adventure. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do after we get the exhaust put on...I was thinking heading out to the stillen shop to see there operation. Depending on what we find we may just head back the same night for the pavillions car meet in Scottsdale,AZ. Any suggestions?

You know I could be wrong, but I hear they can deliver things right to your door nowadays.

Its all about the nature of a road trip to get away from your daily grind. I enjoy trips and occasionally hooking up with random woman from different cities/states.lol
