Hey all,

I have a stock 2003 S2k with approx 33,500 miles. The clutch is starting to catch a bit later especially under hard starts (same feeling my old maxima had a month or so before it went totally). I'd like to start shopping around and reading up on replacements BEFORE it goes so I thought I would throw this out and see if anyone had recommendations.

It's a daily driver in LA, but I'd like to find something that is a little tougher than the stock setup and can handle a bit more abuse . . I do afterall drive the PCH on the weekends

Thanks in advance,

Rich

 

ACT/Comptech package = ACT HD PP, OE FD, OE TB, Comptech Fly.

I have this set up and daily drive.

 

If I were you ....I would get the SPEC Stage 2+ Clutch kit with lightened pressure plate and also a SPEC lightened flywheel good for 430 lbs/ft torque. Excellent for daily driving and excellent for spirited ones, too. I just love them. Just don't forget to break them in ... about 400 miles of stop and go.

 

I also have the hardtopguy clutch package and with the power/abuse from a turbo setup it handles it no problem, so with stock power it is definitely up to the task. The clutch feel is close to stock, just a little harder, but it grabs 100% better then stock.

 

You do get used to it fairly quick though. It feels normal to me now.

 

I'm pricing clutch kits now, where's the best price for this setup?

 

I plan to go with the HTG set up when the time comes.

 

PM'ed

 

All,

Thank you for the help!!!

Did you also have to replace your Clutch Throwout Bearing?
