pezdos Posted July 15, 2009 Share 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 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcash5 Posted July 16, 2009 Share 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 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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?

IanS Posted July 17, 2009 Share 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!
