Review: RJM AFP Clutch Pedal System

kmsb3001 · 08-28-2015, 07:56 PM

i just install the RJM on my 370z TT .
i had one problem now. with high RPM and full boost above 6500rpm i can not shift hard or fast it seems like something lock between the gears . the only way
to shift is to remove full my foot from the accelerator and full clutch press rpm goes down thin i can shift happens with all gears .

any help or idea .

Hi Kmsb3001, sounds like not enough disengagement stroke for your clutch setup at high RPM's. What clutch setup are you running?
I would recommend increasing the clutch rod setting a bit to raise the friction point a little at a time and test if that allows shifting under the same conditions. If not I would try reducing the AFP setting a bit as well to see if that makes the difference. The clutch isn't fully disengaging and causing some drag which is magnified at high RPM causing the gear lock outs.

Let me know how it goes.

Adding install video to help others. The pedal is easy to install. It's just tight to work in let alone recording a video 1 handed why showing what is going on.

Do any of you experience a a lot of play/loose clutch on a cold start? I usually experience a lot of play with the clutch on a cold start and then when the car warms up it goes back to the normal stiffness and has a full travel. Hopefully its not my csc going out, I also checked the fluid levels and it looks all good. I have my rev3 set at recommended setting of 75 afp.

Just installed mine with my OS Giken Quad Clutch... Ill let you know how it feels in a few days

astro932 · 01-19-2016, 05:13 PM

So after having it in for a week now I can honestly say this is the best mod for the money hands down... Like I keep messing with it here and there and I can say that it makes it so you can have exatly what you want!! Im always nervious with clutch mods Ive seen a few cars that have burned up clutches doing stupid things ,but with this if you just do as you are told all will be right!

I hate the 370z clutch even with a helper spring. I think its time to give this a try before I sell this car lol. Quick question I have a poly urethane trans mount. Has anyone had this combo yet? Poly trans and the RJM Clutch any feedback would be awesome.

I have urethane engine, trans and dif mounts. Yes, the car feels different when shifting. It's a little firmer every time you shift. The RJM itself is awesome. My brother's hated driving my car and avoided driving it if possible. Yes, my car is boosted, have lots of this and thats in it and they STILL avoided driving it. They all said, "It's not fun driving it. You have to Work to drive her." After the RJM, they said it's 100x better, "it's like almost a regular car now."

The Poly trans is in the car already and love the shifter now. If the clutch can be a little better then its time to really start thinking about boosting this bad boy.

Anyone in SoCal that can help a fellow Z enthusiast with this?
