Changing My Clutch On Saturday

hey guys im changing my clutch this Saturday I went with the Competition Clutch stage 4 6 puck. I searched and got no results. I was wondering if anybody could tell me the torque specs on the clutch and flywheel? (meaning the bolts/screws) Is there anything else I should pay attention to? Also is it ok to run brake fluid with the clutch or do i need clutch fluid? any info/advice would be great

while you are in there i would change the pivot pin on the fork too.....mine just broke and now i have to rip the tranny out again and replace the pin after doing this 5 months ago to change the clutch.....$12 part worth the money but not the time!!!!

i have that already and changing the pilot bushing too will be a good idea too... ill post the DIY soon since i got it of a 350z forum i might as well post it here to be available to the G's and not search all over the place; write up, torque specs and the whole nine yards

did you replace the flywheel or leave it stock? Resurface? How many miles did you have on it?

I contacted the dealership and resurfacing the flywheel is not an option. It comes aluminum from the factory so its either you change or leave it and yes i did change it

How many miles did you have on it and did you replace it with a stock flywheel?
