It took about 12,500 miles to go. Much better than the 5000 mile stock clutch.

I know some guys with TT 350Z's and their OS Giken clutches crapped out really early too. So if these Japanese high dollar clutches don't hold out long, what does?

The replacement discs are available from HKS through all dealers. Try Alamo Autosports in Arlington. They usually stock them...

as stated above you can get the rebuild kit from any hks dealer part# 2699-RA011($600ish) it has both disc center plate assembly and pressure plate and bolts. And you might as well order the studs part# 2699-RA036($20ish for the set). when you bring in the flywheel for resurfacing youll probably get some odd looks cause of the standoff blocks, they will slip off but its easier if you pull the studs first they have a small dowel pin in the blocks as well. The individual disc are part# 2699-RA034 just fyi but they will be useless.

The OS Gikens the Texas guys used (I know both guys, one of which really well!), were only the single disk clutches...should never have been sold to them in the first place!! I use the single on my NA 350Z...works fine, but for forced induction, it would never last. Both guys since went to the ATS twins (Mike, with the blue one was the first), and never looked back

Let me know if you need the rebuild kit and/or the studs...can get it in a couple days
