Need A Clutch To go With Fidanza

Which Clutch Should I go with along with my N/A Build. My 3rd Gear syncro recently went bad and I have to get it fixed. So I have headers, intake, and 2.5 inch exhaust and I want to add a fidanza flywheel and new clutch for free while the transmission case is open. I have knowledge of the 350z clutch in a 5.5 and another clutch I can't remember stage 1 something. Anyway Help me out!

Smart move on the flywheel. The dual mass unit is very heavy and driving with the fidanza is a nice change.

As far as a clutch, do you plan to add more power mods or leave the car as is?

I've got a Spec Stage 3 6 puck on my 4th gen paired with a Fidanza, great set up and very streetable. Not saying you have to go that agressive but considering my experience I'd def say they make a damn good product, and would recommend them. Good luck bro

I just did a Fidanza with an ACT HDG6 6 puck sprung hub and i can't tell you how impressed i am with the combo. Streetable feel with no chatter but a hell of a grab.

If you are going N/A there is no reason you will ever ever need a SPEC Stage 3 clutch...they are rated at a Max 495ft lbs...you will never get anywhere near that on a N/A motor. Now I have a Spec Stage 2 clutch with fidanza fly...its rated up to 400ft-lbs. It feels VERY VERY good!

Real question is do you ever plan to go to the track?




a stage 3 or 4 is really something to consider for drag use. IMO



If you never plan to track it, then go with a decent stage one
