And I must add, new upgrades does make the car feel brand new. Just recently did a clutch job on mine along with Tokico Illuminas, paired with my Progress Springs, and all I can say is, the car is a lot more fun to drive now. Now I just need some more performance.....intake spacers soon?

If you ever saw the exterior it is just as immaculate. Looks better than cars in showrooms today.

how much difference does a flywheel actually make? I have the notorious 3rd gear grind, its not too bad yet but replacement is in the future so I'll be doing the clutch as well, however I never really thought of upgrading the flywheel... is it worth the $?

to me it makes a big deal in acceleration.....kind of the same principle as the lightweight crank pulley......less energy wasted turning heavy stuff and more power to the wheels. It was worth it to me.....if I had to do it all over again I would definitely do it! Ask anyone here that have lightweight flywheels....sure they will tell you the same thing. Don't know how much it helps 3rd gear grind.....I know the ES shift bushings helped 3rd gear grind for me.......not totally gone...but it helped significantly. Those shift bushings were easy to install.....just use some silicone spray and a c-clamp...pressed those bad boys right in....no problem!!

Unfortunately I didn't :/ I just got an OEM clutch kit from DAVEB, I wanted to go down the 350Z clutch route, but funds were kind of tight at the moment, plus I don't have any power mods.....as yet. My next big upgrade will probably be NWP intake spacers, can't wait for it!

Yes definitely. This will hurt low end power, but since you are removing an obstruction, it will help top end. You will gain approximately 5-8hp on midrange and top end power and your car will accelerate faster from 0-60mph and in the 1/4 mile.
The NWP Engineering VIAS Block Plate Kit is only $26.85 and it's beautiful at the same time! You can't go wrong.
And we just released a new 3pc Thermal Intake Spacer Kit for your engine for only $175.

Yep, I was looking into it, but I'd rather just put the extra $50 and get the full 5pc kit. Super excited, I cannot wait for them, I will probably be getting them towards the end of the year.

Thanks. If you want the full 10hp and 40 degree temperature reduction, the 5pc will be your best bet.

I will personally vouch for the spacer kit and bop, I recently installed them. First the bop for a bit, which is noticeable in the top end, and is pretty cool for how cheap and easy to install it is. The spacers are a little more difficult to install, but have great benefits. I love the spacers, it gives a very nice mid range power and gives the car a subtle, but but awesome whistle at certain rpms. Ordering from Canada was resonable, and Aaron is very helpful. You will not be disappointed with either of these products. Happy modding

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do.

I won't forget about you 5th and 6th gen guys! I have quite a few cool projects in the works right now for this VQ35 engine. Testing will take a couple months though. The prototypes are being designed right now for the CNC machine.

I'm sorry, no, but we will ship in the same package so you save on shipping costs. And the NWP VIAS Block Plate Kits are on sale right now. These two mods go great together! Let me know if you have any more questions.
