from a evo x to a z...few questions
 

This weekend i traded my 2011 evo x in for a z and i love it but there are some things i am unsure of any insight would be great. Clutch feels horrible feels like the spring or something is rubbing when i press it and release it is this normal? Clutch/flywheel chatter from a stop in 1st at low rpms normal?

Any help would be great...i cant seem to get a nice clean shift sometimes seems to be jerky alot.

First of all, welcome to the Family.. Now regarding your question.. Start by reading on the following thread. You should get the helper spring, many of us including me are using it and its one of the cheapeast/enjoyable mods.

Cheers!

Yes, stck clutch chatters, the flywheel I still 33 lbs tho. And yes, there is a spring in the clutch. You can remove it, replace with a new clutch helper spring, or buy the rjm clutch pedal.

Give it a tad more gas and tad more slip off the line.

Both normal. I would like to replace my spring as well and eventually the clutch/flywheel for a lighter one... I don't mind the noise as long as I know nothing is wrong with it

Yeah the clutch takes some getting used to. It loud and clunky, but it reminds you that you are driving a real mans sports car. None of the clutch delay BS on BMWs. It really takes some skill and precision to drive this one smoothly. Once you get it down, go let that friend that we all have who swears up and down that they are a better manual driver than Michael Schumacher. You will embarrass them.

I think you made a great choice. Yes, no more rear seats, but she looks a hell of a lot better than the Evo. Enjoy the car!

Car looks amazing compared to the evo....but its silver which is boring wish i coulda found one in white...are uprev tunes worth it?

Welcome OP. I wish I had an EVO X.

:gtfo2:

I too made that same switch and I tracked both cars fairly regularly. Although I have posted times 2-5 seconds faster at each track in my previous Evo X (w/ SST). I feel like my driving skills have improved dramatically in the Z. Welcome to the Z fam. Enjoy!

NOIOOOOOOO!!! go get your evo back :p nah jk the z is a fun car welcome to the family. want to make your clutch feel amazing ???? upgrade to any other clutch besides stock and get the clutch helper spring that should fix all your issues.

OP. Yes it is normal. All remedies have been given to you.

Welcome to a better forum. :tup:

Thanks everyone! I plan on switching to black chrome nissan emblems how hard is that to do? Just a heat gun and floss? Any screws?

no yes no

If the Evo came in a 2 door my dream would have came true.
