G 35 clutch slippage
G 35 clutch slippage
Alright, so I just purchased my first g35. I have a stock drivetrain. I only have 12K miles. BUT...I feel like my clutch slips on hard 1-2 shifts. Also, when I try a brake-stand(Traction Control off, of course), the tires don't spin, but instead the clutch slips. Soooo not good. Also, on hard drag launches I have let the clutch all the way out but I can just feel it still not fully engaged. Am I imagining things? Is this a common problem? The car is still under warranty. Should I get it checked out?
PS I am so glad to be a part of the G culture now. Good purchase.

Clutch is shot. Our cars aren't dragsters, you know.
The clutch and flywheel are wear and tear items so not covered by warranty. There's a few sponsors on here that have clutch and flywheel kits for sale. If you want just a stock replacement, get the Exedy OEM replacement. Its actually better than stock and the flywheel is 14 lbs lighter than the factory one. 18 lbs as opposed to 32 lbs.
Labor will probably run you anywhere from 400-600.
