The more I am reading reviews the more I'm dying for it.
I'd be interested to see the difference in the rev3 version for the G35 and the rev2 for the G37. Sounds like the rev3 is a bit easier to install although I'm not afraid of getting a my hands dirty. Also sounds like some upgraded components. I will reach out to Ryan.
Another question, which I assume has been asked an answered, any considerations of a group buy. Price seems pretty reasonable given the improvements but saving a few bucks let's me save up for more mods!

Here's my quick take. I'm a car noob and I was able to install it. It's only a bitch due to lack of space.
It has made my G SO MUCH BETTER TO DRIVE. I cannot overstate this.
I've had it in for 9 months now and I can't believe I didn't get it as soon as I knew about it. Don't wait for a group buy, just get it now.
I had two different helper springs and they made modest improvements, but THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER.
GET IT NOW.
Tip: When you take off the plastic panel near the fuses, I'd lay some paper and tape to make a little barrier to prevent any small parts you're dealing with from dropping down there. I previously lost a pin to the stock clutch pedal assembly when dealing with the helper springs.

RJM Clutch Pedal System Worth is EVERY CENT!
Since I got my 6-Speed G, the ONLY complaint I had was the sucky clutch engagement... Read about the RJM upgrade, so decided to order their pedal system. The BEST $250 I could ever have spent! Really improved my driving enjoyment (and especially my passengers). Installation was pretty easy, finished up in about an hour. Note--mark your switches--they look alike and plug in the same... Easy to get them swapped... If you own or plan to own a 6-Speed G37 (or 370Z), go ahead and budget $250 into your expectations--YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

Also, make sure you have good lighting. A good headlamp and/or a flexible work light are a must.

I think I posted this elsewhere but I will post it here in the review for your benefit and everyone else's as well. It is very well worth it, particularly if you are big, to remove the driver seat to install this. It's only 4 bolts and several wire harness to disconnect. But it allows you to lie flat on your back with good visibility and ability to easily work with both hands. You don't have to contort your body like you do if you kneel outside the car and try to twist your upper body underneath the dash and work on it without being able to see it well or use both hands easily. It makes the install faster. It makes it easier. It prevents you from getting that cramp in your side and back that you get if you do it the "regular" way.
Also, make sure you have good lighting. A good headlamp and/or a flexible work light are a must.

There's 4 14mm bolts holding it to the floor, one at each corner. Once unbolted there are several wiring harnesses underneath clipped in to control various electronics. Press the retaining clip and pull them loose. No two are the same so it's impossible to put them back together wrong.
