Jim Wolf Clutch/Flywheel!
GOT IT IN TODAY FINALLY!! Completely different drive! I wanted to post my experience with this setup from day one so i figured i'd start a thread up for anyone looking for info or anyone that has any info on this setup. I also had the agency power clutch line installed with redline fluid:
Ive driven with it on only 10 miles so far. My clutch pedal throw is shorter and the engagement is right at the bottom. I almost stalled out a couple times in first but i am getting used to holding the pedal down a bit more. I am getting some slight jerks mostly at the beginning of 1st but it seems to be wearing off. The chatter was not as bad as i expected either! Its about as loud as my stock one just more noticeable of a chatter lol Other than that and a couple strange clutch pedal noises everything is all good and i no longer have to be a 5000 rpm for my clutch to engage! haha

u know i personally dont really know since i wasnt able to compare it to the stock line with the jwt setup. i had it installed at infiniti of coconut creek by this guy bill who has had experience building FI G's and such...he said this is a good upgrade compared to the stock that can stretch or flex. it is supposed to get rid of the mushy cutch pedal feel (whatever that means) but i think it is more for heat resistance...

I had Street Image switch to the SS clutch line and performance fluid and have not yet experienced the clutch pedal getting stuck even the bunch of times I've tracked the G with the current set-up.
and to keep it on topic: I too am a JWT clutch and flywheel owner, and love my set-up!

nice avatar wally u had me poking at my screen for a sec! LOL
well i just hit over 100 miles on the setup and i can already feel the difference from when i first drove it away! first gear is starting to smooth out now but i am still getting some awkward pedal noises only when it is not depressed tho...seems like it rattling against sumthing but i am not sure. i am going to the dealer tomorrow to make sure my pedal assembly is all good. i remember a while back the dealer was going to replace my input shaft but thwn decided not to? maybe that has something to do with it. either way it doesnt affect how i drive
