The spring doesn't soften the clutch, In fact, makes it firmer.

Yeah, just like Joe@ZSpeed said. You do not want to make the clutch pedal swing feel 'softer' you want to feel a bit more firm so you can gauge your initial engagement point a bit better, or make it feel like a more traditional clutch pedal.

The OE clutch in the 370z was far too soft for me.
I went with the RJM Clutch Pedal assembly:

*RJM Performance.com - Home

You can ADJUST it so it can bring it all the way down to where it engages pretty much off the floor or up to factory where it engage at the top of pedal swing. Also, it gives you that better feel.

It is highly recommended if you plan to replace your clutch in the future with with an after-market setup.

Thanks!

Also on eBay still. I like mine with no spring.

Are you trying to make the clutch less stiff? All the springs and the removal for that fact will increase stiffness. It was hard enough to get the feel for engagement with the stock spring. I couldn't imagine how difficult it would be to drive it with a stronger (less stiff pedal) spring.

Here's a place to grab one if anyone still needs it:

Group Buy - Clutch Pedal Assist Spring for 6MT - MyG37

I got mine from that guy and it's great.

I don't understand the problem here. The first link in Jason's first post is where to go. Or as jwick mentioned, PM LMBmikeZ
