New clutch

[Allan Zada]

Changed my clutch this morning and its now like driving a new car

 

Only driven 3 Zs and they have all had fairly heavy clutchs so i just assumed thats how they were.

 

Changed mine as it was squeaking. Now it light as a feather. Nearly pushed the pedal through the floor when i got in to start it

 

Really glad I did it, and to think ive been sitting on the new clutch for over 4 months.

Well done that man

[taffyjason]

what clutch did you use? mine is still heavy after a change!

[Allan Zada]

I just used the standard exedy clutch kit.

 

Have you tried changing your clutch fluid? I done mine about a month ago and that did help quite a bit

I`m swapping my stock clutch & DMF with an Exedy 6puc & SMF tomorrow. It will be nice to compare the differences.

 

Are you still running DMF?

Yeah, even changed the servo, the biting point totally changed, but weighting felt pretty much the same

yeah i kept the original dual mass. Didnt want the noise from the single and there was nothing wrong with it so why replace it. I was pleasantly surprised how straight forward it was to do as well. Having never had a 350z box out before was all done just under 4 hours.

The only other thing I did was made sure everything in the bell housing was spotless and regreased the input shaft splines, release bearing sleeve and the contact point on the armature.

I really could do with a lighter peddal as the Sciatica is a bum at the moment:(

Well i don't know what the Garage did, i know i won't be going back to them, as when they said ' if you pay cash we will take the tax off ' , anyone who offers that isnt exactly on the board! so i doubt they did a thorough job
