For Those Who want a better clutch:

Im taking on the role of khoa here.

If there is any mod I want done to my car, its a nismo or JWT clutch (preferably nismo). But if numbers are right, I am assuming we can do a group buy. I want to see who is interested.

And for those of you, who just cant drive a clutch...(ex. Virge, Clokwork, Lek, etc.) and get smoked all the time. Get an automatic...LOL . I aint saying I can drive one, I admit it. I think that the 1-2% defect rate that infiniti states has to be due the fact that you sorry a$$ ppl cant drive a 6MT. Yeah I said it, stick to what you know. Automatics Rule!!!

I'm interested in a JWT or Nismo clutch and flywheel setup...
Either brand for clutch, so $ will be determining factor. Def. JWT for flywheel because it is much lighter than Nismo.

I don't know if this is true or not, isn't the JWT clutch + JWT flywheel combo noisier compared to stock? I mean, the clutch chatter. There is a post here where people have reviewed this combo and have complained about the chatter being there through about 2200 rpm. I think the better combo would be the JWT clutch + UR flywheel which seems to have the least noise. That aside, nothing but good things for the JWT c/fw combo.

I think any lighter (i.e. non OEM dual mass flywheel) will introduce a chatter at low RPM's
