SteveRS Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Hey Guys!!!! Im new to the site, only joined a couple of days ago, just finding my way around. I've had my 06 plate 350z for a year now and i absolutely love it, its just done 30000 miles and the clutch finally gave up on me the other day. Eurospec in Normandy, Surrey are going to be installing the new clutch, they have given me a price of £1800 including VAT to install an uprated clutch, £350, remove and re-install the gear box, £250 and install a fly wheel from Nissan for a massive £965!!!!! I havn't given them the go ahead to order the clutch and flywheel yet. I was hoping somebody could give me some advice on a good clutch kit as im not too happy at paying £965 for a flywheel from Nissan, im assuming its the same as the original. Are performance clutches any good as Eurospec told me it could be cheaper to have a performance clutch but it would make the clutch pedal a lot heavier and a different response when changing gear, is this true? are they better than standard clutches for road use? do they last as long? PLEASE HELP any advice would be much appreciated, cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
