Will the EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch fit a 1996 300ZX Twin Turbo?

Yes. Turn 14 lists the 06954 for the 1990-1996 Z32 300ZX Turbo, which covers every US model year of the twin-turbo VG30DETT car, coupe and convertible alike. The kit uses a 250 mm disc and a 24-tooth, 25.6 mm input spline, the same spline as the naturally aspirated Z32.

How much power will this 300ZX clutch hold?

EXEDY rates the 06954 at 496 lb-ft of torque capacity at the flywheel and 413 lb-ft at the wheels, from 2,021 lb of clamp load. That suits a VG30DETT with upgraded turbos, injectors and a tune on pump fuel, while big-power builds on race fuel are better served by a twin-disc clutch.

Does it fit the non-turbo 300ZX?

No. The naturally aspirated Z32 uses a smaller 240 mm clutch, so this 250 mm kit does not apply. EXEDY offers that car the 06955B thick-disc and 06900B thin-disc Stage 2 kits, which Turn 14 lists for the 1990-1996 300ZX Base and 2+2 with the VG30DE engine.

Single disc or twin disc for a Z32?

A single thick disc such as the EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch keeps the pedal, noise and rotating mass close to factory, which suits a 300ZX used for touring. A twin-disc clutch holds more torque in the same space and suits high-boost cars, at the cost of chatter and a sharper engagement.

How difficult is a clutch change on a 300ZX Twin Turbo?

It is a transmission-out job in a tight engine bay with a heavy gearbox, usually a full day in a shop. Replace the release bearing and pilot bearing and resurface or replace the flywheel at the same time, and check the hydraulic slave cylinder for leaks.

Description

EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch Kit for Z32 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo (Thick Disc)

EXEDY’s Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch Kit for Z32 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo is a single-disc upgrade for the VG30DETT car that has been given larger turbos, injectors or simply more boost. It is rated at 496 lb-ft at the flywheel, and its 250 mm thick cerametallic disc carries the heat of repeated pulls far better than an organic disc on a heavy grand tourer.

Design and Performance

A ductile-cast cover delivers 2,021 lb of clamp load to a thick cerametallic disc on the 24-tooth, 25.6 mm spline, giving 511 lb-ft of clutch torque by EXEDY figures. The single-disc layout keeps rotating mass close to factory and avoids the noise of a twin-plate clutch, which suits a 300ZX that still covers long distances. A sprung center damper protects the differential and half-shafts.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
