Exclamation advice on any good shops to replace clutch and fly

I live in the long beach area and im looking for some advice on where to take my car to get my clutch and flywheel replaced. I tried the dealership but they want to charge an arm and a leg. Im also looking for advice on what clutch and fly combo i should get. Im thinking about the JWT combo or the the ACT stage 1 Combo. Infiniti told me $720.00 for labor, granted i get my own parts. Any help on this matter would be great.

if your down to go the next city over in Huntington Beach check out Stimulated Motorsports. Ask for Brandon he's done plenty of clutches on g's and z's including mine. He's pretty knowledge able of the vq set up and is very reasonably priced.

I just got back from Corner 3 Garage in Lake Forest. I'm not going to go anywhere else. Nima is a great guy, total professional. Everyone on this board recommends them so I went for a 45k mid service and in one visit he turned me into a lifetime customer. I met another G owner there finishing up his turbo build, Steve. He's been going there for awhile and said the same things. If you read this, nice build Steve.

I've got the JWT Clutch and Unorthodox Racing FW in my ride.

If i could do it all over again, i'd probably go JWT Clutch and JWT Flywheel.
This setup is very street-friendly and meant to be a daily driver setup.
I've convinced over 20 people to get this combo and they thank me each time they see me.

Your best price for the clutch and flywheel will probably be at Performance Nissan.

As for install, hit up SP Engineering.
Ask for Eugene. (626)333-5398
Tell him "DRU" sent you.

He'll give you a very fair price and top notch labor.
You should be in and out in 4 hours or less.

I forgot to add...

As you're swapping out the clutch and flywheel, bleed out the existing clutch fluid and have it refilled with Motul RBF600.

There's a subtle improvement in feedback from the clutch pedal, but every bit helps.
Biggest advantage is the pedal movement feeling smoother.
