I admit the pedal feel was likely partly due to wear, but like I noted in my earlier post, I (personally) don't feel any need to install an RJM pedal with the EXEDY kit as it functions now.
The only increase in noise is the tiniest bit of rattle when sitting at idle from the bouncing clutch fingers. You can hear it running the car next to a wall, such as pulling through a drive-through. It's got close to zero chatter, and I'd be so bold as to say less than the stock (maybe stock replacement) clutch that was in there before.
When I had my previous G37 I had them install a solid nodular flywheel from Z1 and a new stock replacement clutch. It rattled badly enough that I thought something was wrong at first, and then later found just life with these cars. Point is, if a specialty company like EXEDY can built a street clutch set that performs better in very way while remaining very easy to drive and stay quiet, I have no idea why a company like Nissan with millions in R&D could not.

Mine sounds like a diesel idle but the 19 or 20 models are now coming with an Exedy clutch. I don't know how deep the changes go, so not sure if the flywheels are any lighter or different in any way, though.
