Yeah it is pricey the best thing you could do is find a good mechanic that knows nissans and have em hook it up. Fortunately and thank god I wa Los able to get in contact with a mechanic that works with Nissan :) and he's always been getting my back since I got my car

Got everything in the car now and car feels good
the lightened flywheel does make a difference in acceleration

What setup did you go with? Did you upgrade the clutch too?

Southbend stage 2 Clutch kit, DXD Black Flywheel 24 lbs , HD CSC and a new OEM master

Hey guys quick question does any one know if it's ok to put DOT4 brake fluid instead of DOT3 in the clutch line. Apparently DOT4 is for higher temp and performance but idk if it's a good idea? Has anyone done it before or should I just stick to actual clutch fluid?

Its much lighter than the stock one, I believe the stock flywheel is 33 pounds.

^^^^ how's you pedal feel ? I think I might have a little air in the system

Yeah you can feel the difference off the line with the new flywheel

As for fluid just splurge a little and just get RBF600

Im still in the process of breaking it in, and that could take a few months, I hardly drive my Z, but I did notice more pressure when I push the clutch in, did you see that as well? (Its kinda more effort to push the clutch in, basically)

I'll be installing my RJM pedal tomorrow morning, I started checking everything out yesterday after work, I'll get home today, and pull out the driver's seat, so Im locked in for tomorrow morning.

Mine felt easier....hummm I'll have to try and bleed it a few more times

Nevermind DOT 4 is acceptable and highly recommended over DOT 3 but NOT DOT 5 ok?
