Silverthorn Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Morning Gents, My clutch has began to show early signs of needing a replacement and is probably due a change in the next month or so. So I'm just wondering if anyone has any specific recommendations when it comes to aftermarket clutches & flywheels and potentially any experience with the items I'm currently looking at? As we speak, I'm looking at purchasing the following: Torqen Lightweight Chromoly Flywheel Torqen Heavy Duty CSC Stage 1 Competition Clutch & Pressure Plate I'll also be giving it a go fitting all this myself. I'm fairly confident when it comes to working on my car but this will be the first time I've replaced a clutch (I've never had the need to in the past - lucky me i know! ) so any useful tips when it comes to this would also be appreciated. I've had a look online and the process looks fairly straight forward and I have basically all the tools required so I'm OK from that point of view - but anything else that might be noteworthy would be brilliant. Cheers, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian@TORQEN Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Hi Tom, JWT clutch/flywheel packages and TORQEN CSC will do the job perfectly, see here: https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/370z/powertrain/clutch-flywheel-packs/1444-370z-jwt-jim-wolf-technology-flywheel-and-clutch-kit-26lb-nodular-flywheel-and-900kg-clutch-l3507-ncfsh.html https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/370z/powertrain/ancillaries/18779-370z-torqen-heavy-duty-concentric-slave-cylinder-csc-trq-vhr-csc.html Both in stock at the moment. Also worth getting a better fluid and if your car has a lot of miles, say over 80k-100k, maybe change the master as well: https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/370z/powertrain/ancillaries/1285-370z-nissan-oem-clutch-master-cylinder--30610-jk00b.html https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/370z/brakes/fluid/2067-370z-motul-rbf-600-racing-brake-fluid-dot-4-100949.html Let me know if you have further questions.

Silverthorn Posted September 7, 2020 Author Share Posted September 7, 2020 Cheers @Adrian@TORQEN, looks like a good bit of kit with seemingly great reviews online so It's definitely one to consider! Thankfully my car is still well under the 80k mark and I've undertook regular fluid changes so hopefully the master is good for a few years to come! Thanks for taking the time to reply to this, it's much appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nissanman312 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I'd say do the master as well mate! They are inexpensive in the grand scheme of the job your doing ive just done mine and the clutch bled up a dream with a new master ...it was a right **** before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverthorn Posted September 8, 2020 Author Share Posted September 8, 2020 @nissanman312 Yeah they don't look to expensive at all. Relatively easy to change as well so I may look to do that just so I know the whole lot is sorted for the foreseeable future. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverthorn Posted September 12, 2020 Author Share Posted September 12, 2020 Just another quick question gents. Does anyone know the internal diameter of the pilot bushing? I'll need to grab myself a bearing puller prior to starting this work. I don't really fancy the look of some of the shortcuts some people have taken to get the bush out without a proper puller.
