Clutch/flywheel...need feedback

370Nismo#125 · 05-20-2010, 03:18 PM

Hello all..
Have a question about stock flywheel on a factory Nismo..
Does it come with the lightweight Nismo Flywheel?
I have 19,500 miles on my car and about to replace my clutch/flywheel...
Thinking about the JWT at this point...
Any comments appreciated.

Clutch/flywheel is the exact same as the base model.

You wore yours out 19k? That's awesome, maybe I will wear mine out that quick too then I will have an excuse to get a lightweight flywheel! I would go for it, the loss of weight will be a nice improvement over stock.

PM me, I can get you a great deal on that JWT or if you want one like the one I just got

Wow.. 20K and its done.. On average how long are these expected to last?

Damn what the hell are you doing to that car? your saying you changed the oil roughly 5/6 times and your flywheel is gone?

Made the mistake of trading cars a couple weeks ago with my sister (Needed an SUV to tow a boat, No hitch on the Nismo) when I got it back from her i noticed that it was slipping...I think she really likes the Sound of the new HFC at 7k ..Now its time for a new clutch.

Make sure you place a cow carcass above the body when you bury her, that way when the tracking dogs go nuts digging, they just assume it's the cow and move on.

i dont think to OP actually wore his out...that would take alot more mileage..i believe he's just looking to upgrade his clutch.

19k and about to replace? Went 70k with the stock clutch and flywheel on my G which is basically the same as the Z with over 100 1/4 mile passes and countless street lunches + canyon runs and a track day.

Maybe you are doing something wrong.....
