In case someone ever comes across this needing a solution, it’s finally fixed after trying a few times. The only real repair was to replace the assembly, and the shot here really drives it home with...

That’s definitely a question for the manufacturer of both. I’d start with asking Z1 which clutches work with their flywheels.

I was thinking with the whole cat out of the way, you could maybe get to the demon bolt from the bottom. Thanks for the info though.

If the car is lowered, the camber would already be pushed in that direction, so the tech may not have had to do much to get it to the requested -3 degrees. OP likely needs to go to aftermarket...

No, not yet. The car is driveable again and I’m out of town for the weekend. The starter went out about 10 days ago, and I even had to change plugs and coils yesterday to cure a misfire, so the G has...

That’s what made me think it possible to bend or tear the firewall’s mounting pad, but it’s a preventative not necessarily a fix. I get that it can move, but has anyone seen the firewall give enough...

Have any of you seen a brake pedal bend?

On a hard stop, I managed to bend or maybe even tear something in my brake pedal, its bracket, or maybe even the portion of the firewall it's mounted to. The car is a '12 G37 coupe, with a manual...

They're a mechanic shop in Central FL that does a ton of RWD Nissan work.

I personally chose them because they were flexible with letting me choose and order the parts I wanted installed.
