^^^ yeah, kinda lol. my car was sitting outside of the shop and friday night somebody came and ****ed with a few of the cars. mine got the worst of it. a gunshot went through the drivers side window, exited the passenger side window and hit the widshield of the civic parked beside it. he/they got in and dumped everything out of my glovebox and console. didnt steal anything though. seat is scratched pretty bad as well as the passenger side door panel.

i dont think it is made for the g37. from my understanding the transmission has to match the clutch and the clutch has to match the flywheel. from engine to flywheel there is not a lot that has to match. but i dont know anything about how all that works so dont quote me. i hope there is a difference in the drivability. Jason, who is doing all the work on it said i should notice a big difference given the fact that the new flywheel is a lot lighter. he said throttle response should improve greatly. but evryone ive asked about a lightweight flywheel has said it works great but it will be a lot louder when the clutch isnt depressed. that could be problematic for some of us because our flywheels are already so loud.
Anyways, once I upgraded to it, it made a world of difference. The best way to explain it is that the car just hooked up better when switching gears, and the revs were smooth and quick. At least that's what it felt like. In the end the dyno tells the story, and when I got my dyno done it sure was obvious there was a difference. Check my sig for the mods on my old alty before I sold it for the g37.
I can definitely recommend JWT, they stand behind their parts and they make great stuff. I auto-x'd my car here in the local auto-x club on the track and those parts are bullet proof.
If you are ever thinking of doing this mod to you car, I can definitely recommend it. It is extremely worthwhile.
Hope this helps.

I put the parts that JWT gave me that are suppose to be for the G37 in the Modding411 section under Engine upgrades. I am waiting for a part number and a little more info on how to order from them. The total cost for both parts was just around $900.
