Clutch Recomendations?
So Iam driving to Biloxi tonight to hit a few casinos and while in 5th and rolling on the gas the rpm's surge at 4500.. My car only has 28k and has been babied so Iam kinda shocked it was slipping. The funny thing is when I finished my TT install and took it for a spin I thought it was breaking the tires away but now I know I was wrong.. ha.. Any thoughts on a clutch and flywheel combo???

It pulls like crazy at 85mph in 5th, well atleast until it starts to slip.. I found this one at gtm. Any thoughts on it? Kinda pricey..

You should do the CSC upgrade while your in there, if you don't that will be the next thing to go... 370Z Clutch Pressure (CSC) Failures |

I went with the JWT clutch and flywheel and have been really happy with it. I do agree with the other it does depend on what your doing with the car. For everyday driving JWT works great.

I have a TT too. 503rwhp/406lbft tq and running a 6 puck Southbend. Feels like stock but a little stiffer and it has NO issue handling the power. I love it. Joe is your man, give him a call.

Iam now wondering if the csc might be leaking onto the clutch causing it to slip? Your right I will go ahead and replace everything while Iam in there. If only I had a lift to do the work.... Another thing is, Iam going to have to take off the 3' gtm downpipes to get the tranny out....!@#$%^&*()
