pezdos Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 Hi! I am new to the forum and am looking for some advice please. I seem to have killed the clutch in my Z and am wandering whether to go for a standard clutch or uprated one? I live in Nottingham and will also need someone reliable to fit it for me, any ideas?

rtbiscuit Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 uprated clutch is apparently better i think exedy is the reccomended replacement to stock. PM zmanalex i think he supplies the kit ready for fitting, and i have a feeling he's not far from you for fitting as well. Quote
Jay Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 He is in perth scotland mate lol, so pretty far away Quote

dcash5 Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 I can vouch for the zmanalex special. I am using the Exedy Clutch and Fidanza flywheel bought of him about 6 months ago and since install has been faultless. The L&B flywheel allows a bit quicker reving - but slight increased noise due to it being a single mass - I love it though Clutch is perfect, nice and light and grips much better than OEM. Dan Quote

Dan more noise it must be quite a hard change with no dual mass to smooth the transition. i dont know if i'd like that more Quote

Dan which specific kit did you get Dan? is it for street only use or could it handle the occasional track and day to day back end wiggle? Quote
dcash5 Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Its just the Exedy OEM equivilant. - Think Alex only does the one! Quote
Greekman Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Exedy and Fidanza for me.... the bite is just perfect make sure u have the slave cylinder checked and replaced if needed with a nismo one... been there... now about the noise.....a bit too noisy for me.... Quote
bronzee Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 Welcome to the forum. Good luck getting your clutch sorted. Quote
IanS Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 Unless you are going for some big power mods (basically FI) the standard clutch is just fine....unless you like doing a lot of standing 1/4 miles...in which case - go as strong as you can! Quote

I am using the Exedy Clutch and Fidanza flywheel bought of him about 6 months ago and since install has been faultless. is it a huge difference between Exedy OEM replacement and Exedy stage 1, would the exedy stage 1 be to much for street use and occasional track?
