A crazy stupid engine mount question!
I bet 50 % of all the zeds out there have perished or completely snapped rubber engine mounts and the drivers dont even know it,seen it so many times now. You would think the engine would be leaping about under load but they dont.

350z release bearing quandry
The stick does disconnect fella,pull the boot back undo the lower pivot bolt like a 300zx,with a short 10mm spanner you can undo the three 10 mm bolts that hold it in the turret and it will come out and stay behind.its a bit like an old transit gearstick.

Boost leak testing method
The pads shouldnt sit against the disc or friction would build up,run out in the disc pushes the pistons back.

TT regular Idle misfire - but no smoke & runs great (video)
You dont have a misfire fella,just poor idle id say,the engine sounds rough because of the low tickover that develops.Id get a consult on that.

Thoughts on clutch and flywheel kit...?
Unless your needing that type of clutch i wouldnt bother,paddles are fine if you need them but they can squeal,they eat the flywheel and the bite point is aggressive so driving in traffic can be a pain.
