    I can't tell you how much I appreciate this video. You and I did my first clutch job together over the weekend. Your guidance was invaluable; saved me a ton of $$. Thank you, friend.

    This Is one of the best clutch installs for infinity/370Z It helped me in my buddy figure out a bunch of hurdles on my Z, good information thanks for the help buddy! Today we mate the engine back to the trans, I hope it's as easy as you made it look!

    I watched this a few times but never commented, I will now. It is a good video, the only thing I would have liked to see was the removal of the Top Two bolts on the Trans. I have a 2011 G37s that I am going to upgrade the Clutch, Flywheel and Pressure Plate and Bearing.

    Good job describing the work, quite detailee, makes me wanna tackle this also. My clutch pedal feels a little crunchy near the bottom. Hope it's not a slave cylinder problem. Keep up the good work and informative videos.

    This guide has been incredibly useful so far, I've subscribed. Unfortunately, I've gotten all the bolts off and I can't seem to get my transmission to come unmated from the engine. Do you have any ideas on what I should do about this? The side where the starter is came off with a little prying, and now unfortunately the passenger side of the car won't come loose. Thank you!

    Great vid. Are the slave cylinders as bad as everyone says? Any way to help extend the life of it beyond running high temp dot 4 fluid? How many miles before yours failed?

  • @thetroyagency
    @thetroyagency Před rokem

    I have about 180,000 miles on my G37 it’s a 2009. I was going to change the transmission fluid at 60,000 but infinity wouldn’t do it because of liability. The transmission clutch still works but I was wondering should I just go ahead and replace the clutch pads? I’m guessing from the stories I hear if I try to change the transmission fluid the transmission would stop working. And how much would a shop charge to do A clutch plaid replacement?

  • @nappyvlogz1843
    @nappyvlogz1843 Před 7 lety

    Damm I wish I would of been able to chime in before you replaced and bought your Clutch I’ve heard good things of southbend but I went with Stage 2 Action Clutch Heavy Duty Slave and lighten flywheel and it grabs so good I’m certain the south bend is a great buy tho!

    Good video. Just subscribed to ur channel. 4:50 yeah, i think nissan/infiniti used blue thread lock on their g35/7 oem shift knobs...it's almost impossible to remove the knob without destroying it..

    • @berky1976
      @berky1976 Před 6 lety

      Just need to vise grip the shaft below the large rubber boot and use one of those rubber strap wrenches on the shift knob until the adhesive gives. I just did it on mine yesterday. No damage at all.

  • @wilfredoayala1805
    @wilfredoayala1805 Před 6 lety

    Hello Alex, thanks for this video, helped me a lot, but i have a quick question, does it have any gasket or o ring where you conect the pipes in the clutch slave?? Bc mine is leaking a lot of liquid there.

  • @frankie1234593

    Does crank sensor need to be removed during transmission drop or did you just remove it?

  • @markprado4547
    @markprado4547 Před 6 lety +1

    Hey Alex,
    Around 17:15, you said that the reason why you did all that work was because of the slave. How did it feel or how did you know of all things that the slave went bad?

  • @hermanmasa6482

    Hey alex! Im actually in the process of replacing my clutch/flywheel and Have CMAK csc delete. Transmission is already out and just waiting on parts but i had a question about the Crank Position sensor i didnt take mine out, its still in there. Should i just disconnect it? Or could i just leave it?

    Alex, I’ve got an 08 coupe and the flywheel bolts seem to be seized. I’ve tried 1/2 impact and breaker bar with PB Blaster to help but nothing is seeming to work. Any suggestions? Thanks
