Shane450 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 I have an 07 350z and the clutch is slipping more and more each day now. I am at the point where i need to stop being lazy and get it sorted out. The car is completely stock and i have no intention of changing in the near future. Can anyone recommend some options? i am not really a car guy so i don't really know what im talking about when it comes to this type of stuff. Is it worth buying new? I have also heard that doing a clutch resurface can be good, does anyone have experience with this? I appreciate any feedback! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Hey dude, I'm guessing you're the Shane from fb =) Should be able to get some good advice here. I imagine zmanalex will be along at some point, if not then drop him a pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kryptek49 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 (edited) Best place to get a new clutch & flywheel will be Zmanalex, I believe the HR's have a poor CSC so this should be swapped at the same time, as well as putting on a braided clutch line. Do you plan on doing it yourself or will you be paying a garage? From a quick look on the forum, OEM clutches for the HR are very expensive and a lot of people go for the Xtreme single mass flywheel (instead of a dual) - however this will cause a lot of noise at low rpms. https://h-dev.co.uk/product/350z-hr-xtreme-clutch-single-organic-kit-inc-smf-and-csc-kni25688-1a-copy/?v=79cba1185463 - here's a link for a full kit, probably best to pm Zmanalex first though to see what he has available. FYI, my HR had a new Nissan clutch fitted (before I purchased it) @ Fast Eddy's in Norwich and this cost around £2,000 including parts & labour Edited August 7, 2018 by Kryptek49 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattRwebB Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Literally in the same boat as you! I’ve been told to go for this https://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/nissan/nissan-370z/xtreme-clutch-nissan-350z-z33-vq35hr-engine-370z-z34-vq37hr-engine-05-clutches.html gives you a near same feeling as standard but will give you more acceleration As it has a lighter flywheel .. standard from nissan is dual mass and in the £2.5-£3 Mark !! And it just gives you a ever so slight smoother drive but less acceleration the link I’ve attached is for HR 350z they do one for DE as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane450 Posted August 8, 2018 Author Share Posted August 8, 2018 Yes doom, that’s me! Cheers dude :D in regards to who who will be doing it.. I may have some friends who might be able to fit the parts so hopefully the labour won’t cost too much! I will have a look at the links you guys have sent now, it seems that the choice is very limited for HR engines. I appreciate the feedback!
