Infiniti G37 Clutch Replacement Part 2 - Putting It Back Together!

[@v36lou]

Thanks for this video. 6 years later and it’s still super helpful . I did my clutch last weekend and I used your videos

[@ZZPharaoh]

This is one of the beset DIY guides I've seen for ANY car project. I love that you include the torque numbers and bolt sized in the video, it saves a lot of time. Thanks!!!

[@kova_motive]

Thanks so much! I try to make my DIYs easy to follow so anyone can do them!

[@sptmbrboys461]

Again, Thank you so much for the part one and part two. Couldn't have done it without these 2 videos.

[@MooseX2012]

how do you not get more views? :o Good work dude keep it coming

[@kova_motive]

Thanks for the support! Much appreciated!

[@320bocian]

You are the man! This video saved me so much on labor costs after my clutch started slipping. Awesome, just awesome. Keep it up

[@reggiekeith]

Thank you so much for this! I have been wanting to do this to my 370Z for awhile now and you explained every step very clearly. Thank you again, you have a fan for life.

CZP updated the flywheel lol.. when i got mine it wad both dowels for front/rear applications and i accidently put it the front dowel. had to remove trans again.good job man....

[@kova_motive]

Uh oh! That's not good!

[@cancan485]

You are a pro ! Wow ! Open your own shop and the dealer will be out of business lol

[@tranbrian3442]

Alex, thanks for the great video. I’m a complete beginner but goin to tackle on this project in the future. Worst is I’ll destroy it and just buy a new car , :)

[@130Jsmith]

How bad is the chatter on the lightweight aluminum flywheel? I have been looking at different clutch and flywheel kits for my G and haven't quite made a decision. I have read a little on SouthBend kits and was looking for your opinion whenever you can. Thanks! Looking forward to more videos

[@cr4zygoose201]

On jackstands... lol. You sir are the fucken man 👍🍺 Great vid, Well done and i learned alot. Not sure if im going to tackle this on mine just yet but i learned alot watching this and need to do the Zspeed csc on my G as well sometime soon.

[@zgtravels]

How long did it take you to install your clutch and its associated parts? I'm going to need to replace my CSC so I'm checking now which units I'm going with and costs as well. I've recently found your channel and have been watching a lot of your videos. I also have a G37s sedan so its been very helpful.

[@Pillager46]

Good job man! Looks like a lot of work.

[@kova_motive]

It's a decent amount. Its definitely time consuming if you only have jack stands, but totally doable. Third time I've done it like this (not all on the G).

[@blanco_954]

Hello Alex, Great DIY video. I need to tackle this job on my 2012 G37 IPL. Clutch sticking to floor and reservoir bone dry. It seems you did this all on your own? if so how many hours did it take you to complete the job. I dont track my car its my daily, would you recommend the ZSpeed CSC delete or just the HD CSC unit? My G went 89,347 before the CSC went out.

[@donchito6281]

Hey Brother Quick Question Did You Have To Jack The Car Up Stupid High To Take Transmission Off Mine Is Automatic And I Need To Change Torque Converter I Was Told To Get 2x4 Wood And Make Them Stack To 12 Inches Thru Wood Cribbing But Seeing This I Might Just Throw My Jack's Under It And Put It On Highest Notch For Clearance

[@nomecaca]

Would love to see a results video curious to see how the new setup feels. I might be going this on my G soon I'm noticing my release point is waaay down low when the car sits for a few days and I drive it, it corrects itself after about 10 min of driving but I've never really encountered this much before.

[@kova_motive]

I will be doing a review video soon. I love the setup.

[@berky1976]

So, I had the unpleasant experience of having to come behind some inept slacker of a mechanic that torqued the transmission bolts (17mm) with a impact tool or just really cranked on them. Almost rounded off the top two bolts trying to get them out. Plus, two of the 14mm were missing on the bottom. The person must have lost them or just failed to put them back. This is the reason I work on my own vehicles. You just can't trust a person who has no ownership of a vehicle, regardless if they are getting paid. Most shops have X amount of time to do whatever task they are assigned for the day and if they go over, the shop loses money (based on their spreadsheet tables). Most of the mechanics out there are not getting paid to do quality work, they are getting paid to successfully complete the task as fast as possible. Things like over-torqued bolts and missing bolts don't matter to them as long as the vehicle functions afterwards. Great vids, they helped me a lot!

[@newls1]

good job brother.... thanks for the video

[@kova_motive]

Thank, you got it!

[@michealgarcia3220]

How many did your g37 had before u changed your clutch? I got 07 g37 6mt as well with 120k miles ..

[@RzVids]

07?

[@crdsenior]

How do you get the gear box to break away from the engine

[@jhawk6100]

Hi Alex... I just wanted to give you a heads up on your finishing up video. When you finished your tranny & Started up the G37. Did you notice a quick 1 second squeal noise like a loose belt. FYI. I've had that noise on my 370Z most of the winter. I really didn't hear that squealing noise when it's warm outside. Come to find out it's not a belt. it's actually your starter. Soon, it's going to stop working. I put in a new starter and the noise went away immediately. I could be wrong just wanted to share some info I had with that NOISE on my Z

[@Starfish933]

My g37 does the same thing, when sitting for more than a day. Never thought it would be the starter.

[@BloBy-fs8ip]

Did any 1 find out if that sound is the starter or not cause mines do it to only when i sits for a few days.

[@weslyl1272]

Did you have any troubles putting the transmission in cause I’m having that trouble?

[@1wals1]

What brand are the clutch, flywheel and the rest of components?

[@emmanuelguerrero5814]

Hey guys, so I bought competition clutch and flywheel for my 2012 G. Comparing the old stock and new flywheel, they seem to be different. The crankshaft teeth seem a bit different and the with of the new flywheel is less than the old one. Should there be any issues with new flywheel being a bit different? Thanks.

[@Hbk_adam]

How did u put the transmission up

[@tanguyloli3435]

Good video as always. Does anyone here know if the Automatic G37 has the same transmission ?

[@702xRyder]

what size are your rpf1 wheels on the 350z and tire specks bro

[@kova_motive]

18x9.5/10.5 and 255/295 tires.

[@702xRyder]

AlexKayRN thanks for specs

[@RzVids]

Man.. I’m struggling very hard getting the transmission to line up back to the engine. I’m guessing this process is slightly different for the coupe... been trying this for three days now.

[@jdub7651]

Did u get it? I’m tackling this job on a coupe next week

[@RzVids]

@@jdub7651 Not yet. The input shaft is just not clearing the pilot bearing. It’s hitting around it. It’s a tight space when you lift it up not much room to wiggle it around. I’m thinking of buying a better but more expensive adjustable transmission jack because the one I’m using now is terrible. No adjustability at all it just goes up so basically I’m trying to wiggle it around trying to get it in. Literally everything else was pretty straightforward and quick tbh but I wasn’t expecting this part to be so challenging..

[@jdub7651]

@@RzVids damn hope you figure it out I might consider buying a transmission jack then

[@RzVids]

@@jdub7651 You will 100% need a transmission jack with a strap. Not even joking it weighs like 180 lbs. I wouldn’t try to lift it with regular floor jack because when you have it in the air... believe me it won’t just go in like you see in this video... you might shift the transmission on it’s side by wiggling it. Without a large surface area that a tranny jack has with a suitable strap down you could seriously hurt yourself or damage it if it ends up falling. I’ll be buying another transmission jack this weekend to see if that makes a difference.

[@jdub7651]

@@RzVids hey man did you get it to work I got a transmission jack now but it only goes up and down with a strap

[@518jeremias]

How dose it drive? Rev up a lot faster?

[@kova_motive]

Drives very well! I will be making a follow up/review video very soon.

[@serjeynoga3212]

Such a great video! Can you shoot me an email I have some questions before I start my clutch replacement! Thanks Alex

[@mountaindewmofo]

Dude the other day I took the OEM shift knob off my g37s ... needless to say it was a son of a bitch! I ended up ruining the original but it was already pretty worn so I didnt really mind.

[@kova_motive]

Oh yes it is! That's why I didn't want to fight with this one too much. When I removed the one off my Z, I destroyed it.

[@issaycperez679]

I just did this now my car wont turn on 😥😥😥😥 i must of missed something

[@frubalcava2208]

Issayc Perez were you able to start your car?

[@traysocrazy]

I did and car not cranking

[@Jay-sz5dt]

hey man are you not upgrade intake for g ??

[@kova_motive]

Not at this time. I just did HPS silicone hoses and K&N drop-ins. I have bigger plans for it so not touching the intakes for now.

[@518jeremias]

AlexKayRN stillen supercharger 🤙🤙🤙😉

[@ebrimabarjo4840]

lol we errwt

[@salv8750]

Bro my car does that same weird noise at start up, I think it might be the starter

[@stevendavis5407]

sal v no that’s actually the power steering pump. My own does the same thing once parked for a couple days.

[@salv8750]

Do you know the exact reason why the pump does that? My car does it when I started sometimes in hot weather, when it’s a cold start in winter or when it’s just cold it doesn’t do it
