Best aftermarket clutch?? 2007 G35S

My car has a little over 35000 and I bought it used from a guy who basically learned how to drive a manual on it. I have added a stillen intake and exhaust and I'm thinking about replacing the clutch next. Even though It isnt showing (or smelling!) like anything is wrong yet, with this many miles on the car and more performance upgrades in the near future I have decided to replace it soon. What are some ideas on good aftermarket clutch that will hold some decent power but still be easy to drive. Also, what are ideas on the aftermarket hydraulic clutch lines that everyone says you must get with any clutch or else you will get a mushy pedal.

daily drivability will suffer and be prepared for excessive clutch chatter, go over to myg37.com and search for the member "VIP G" he uploaded a video with the JWT clutch with a review.

Seems like a great clutch IMO but most of the ppl with aftermarket clutch's on older gen G's have all told me to stay with OEM, so i dont know what ill do yet when the time comes.

So far @ 30k and the clutch seems as good as new, knock wood

Besides the chatter of the clutch it seems to be really good.

^+1 but for MOST the clutch is supposed to be a pain in traffic, while some would disagree, i think i might still go with JWT when time comes...

also, rpms will drop faster with the lightweight of the flywheel

Also, if you get a racing clutch, you can stall so much easier.
Takes time to get used to a new clutch.

5AT FTMFW!!!!
