Any plans on ever going to the track? At what mileage did your clutch fail? For naturally aspirated street duty I highly recommend the Southbend Stage 2 clutch kit flywheel pack with a billet steel flywheel from Z Speed Performance. CMAK CSC, RMJ CMC, RMJ Petal is something to consider if don’t already have this. Also a good time to flush and refill your transmission fluid as well.

The Action Stage 1 clutch is an organic clutch with reinforced steel backing. This clutch is similar to the Nissan OEM clutch it has normal smooth engagement. This clutch would be ok for street duty I would not use this clutch for track duty though. Depends what kind of a clutch petal you like? Hard? Firm? Soft?

south Bend stage 2 clutch

Went this route and you feel like all your problems get solved.

I'm probably guilty of not going by recommended break-in procedure, but 8k miles later since August 2016, I'm driving just fine.

Around that time the flywheel offered was 18.5lb. I'm kinda curious how the 14lb option from Z1 feels. I'm sure there's chatter, but if the ~4lbs still yields some noticeable improvement in response and the unit isn't glass, it sounds worth it (no pun intended).
