Do I need a tune with a clutch

Don't forget guys, if OP intends to do a lightweight flywheel along with his clutch job it might help to tune the car as the extra chatter from the flywheel

Don't forget guys, if OP intends to do a lightweight flywheel along with his clutch job it might help to tune the car as the extra chatter from the flywheel will sometimes cause issues with the knock sensors which a tune can adjust for... forget who it was but we've already had a member with that exact issue

This is a really good catch.

They can also effect idle quality and deceleration dips sometimes. A buddy in the past put a very light racing one on his car (not a z) and then it would dip past desired idle and almost stall (or did stall a couple time I don’t remember). So things like the IAC opening (would be throttle bodies today) need to be a little more aggressive.
