Please help with clutch question

so i went to the infiniti dealership because i was having a problem shifting into second gear and sometimes 4th. it was also making a grinding sound when releasing the clutch. Infiniti is replacing my transmission under warranty and suggested i replace my clutch as well. so this is where i need the help. i want to go with the nismo clutch setup and i know i need the:

1. Nismo clutch Plate

2. Nismo clutch disc


Infiniti also told me i need a throttle bearing and i guess i need a pilot bearing?

Infiniti is trying to charge me a arm and a leg for the nismo clutch disc...$500 just for this disc which i know is way overpriced so my question is what do i need and where should i buy it. Please help....Thanks

If its under warr.. then the stock clutch is gonna be your best bet unless you wanna pay for the nismo but if the labor is free then just look around and see if you can get it else where but $500 for nismo sounds right

the labor is going to be free but the clutch in not covered under warranty so i have to buy one anyways. but i want a better clutch because i going to eventually go with a FI setup most likely the vortec SC.

check the market place i think you can go with JWT for a whole lot cheaper than the NISMO

You need a pressure plate, clutch disc, release bearing and a pilot bearing. I think I saw the nismo clutches on everythingg35.com
