Car is Running good :)

As some of guys know i recently had some problems with my clutch. I ended up changing out the flywheel and clutch.

Both the clutch and the flywheel are from ACT. It feels like a totally different car. The clutch is so much better then the stock clutch, every gear grips so good shifting is so much smoother.

Im getting my eibach springs installed next week.

Also I am thinking about removing my resignator.

I feel so good having my car back i love it.

Thx for all the help guys saved my self about 1600 dollars by not having the infiniti dealership doing it.

i take it that the ACT does not have the dual mass flywheel so im guessing youd feel faster rev rising which should make downshift rev matching more quick and fun, do you feel the difference? the reduce weight should be noticed imo.
Also iv heard that they make more clutch chatter that stock, thoughts?

You sure? I thought Exedy made most of the clutches for Japanese makes.

Thanks for the review Fendi35. I noticed that the stock clutch tends to slip when shifting at redline.
