What power level are you looking to run? Z1 recommended full face for me. I'm keeping torque to 400wft-lbs.

That's what I'm looking for too. Are you planning track or drag strip? What were their reasonings for needing the 6 puck?

I think Mitch has a 6 puck.

I stated i planned to do the chicago half mile/ maybe one HPDE, and the rest would all be street

I was thinking about getting the JWT clutch/flywheel but I haven't really decided quite yet. I may give Z Speed a call when the time comes.

See post #446 of this thread.

The Z is a summer weekend car/toy for me, so it didn't see too much action this past summer with the install.

Right now, I'm running the base tune & 7.5-8 PSI, so probably around 450-460whp. Didn't get the chance to to get it tuned before the winter as I was breakin' in the clutch. The plan is to get tuned @ RT tuning this coming spring. I plan on pushing 525-550whp on 94 octane.

I think a twin-disc clutch from OS Giken might be better for DD but for me, I chose to make zero compromises, so I went with a puck style clutch. I also went with a puck clutch because I plan on pushing much more than 550whp in the future.

Good information. Thanks

From experience with a 6 puck (Clutch Master FX400) on my 350z, it is a bit harsh off the line. I don't find it bad between gears at all, but once the ceramic is warmed up, it is a bit of an on/off type clutch. It has held everything I have thrown at it though.

This is the clutch I am talking about: Clutchmasters.com - High Performance Clutch and Flywheel Systems

In general the 6 pucks will be a bit on the harsh side (depending on the material, to a degree), and if it is in the budget, a twin disc would be optimal.

For this application (370z with any turbo) I would also make sure the clutch can hold at least 550ft/tq.
