Questions is looking to get a stage 2 or 3 clutch while I'm at it, can anyone recommend any? Also, anyone know of any reputable Nissan / 370 motorsports mechanic in southern California? Dealership was asking $2,400 for the clutch alone
Payments are about to be finished and I'm looking to start tuning my car

Another question, when starting the car after being driven, sometimes the RPM is very low and the car would turn off. This problem doesn't happen in the morning if the car has been idle all night
any input?

thanks.
You aren't that far from Seb @ SpecialtyZ or Fast Intentions. I'd contact them for clutch replacement. I know FI does clutch upgrades with TT packages, I just don't know what else they do.


Your other problem could be air filters, throttle bodies needing cleaned or a problem with the fuel pump. Seems our cars are prone to the 'hat' on the fuel pump breaking off, and since you say you've driven it hard, it's a possibility. Good luck.
