Description
The EXEDY Lightweight Flywheel – 2007–2008 INFINITI G35 / 2008–2013 INFINITI G37 / 2003–2009 Nissan 350Z + more is a focused driveline solution for 2007–2008 INFINITI G35 / 2008–2013 INFINITI G37 / 2003–2009 Nissan 350Z + more, aimed at owners who want enthusiast street, autocross, HPDE, and modified performance builds without piecing together mismatched clutch components.
EXEDY Heritage
With roots in Japan dating to 1923, EXEDY has spent generations engineering clutches and powertrain components for both vehicle manufacturers and the aftermarket. That OEM foundation carries into its performance range, where organic, cerametallic, chromoly, and multi-plate technologies are developed for increasingly demanding street and competition applications.
Why This Part Fits the Build
EXEDY flywheels are engineered as matched driveline components rather than cosmetic weight reductions. Its lightweight performance flywheels use one-piece billet or forged chromoly steel construction to reduce rotational inertia while retaining high thermal capacity and integrated ring-gear strength.
A lighter flywheel can improve engine response and rev matching, but it can also reduce stored rotational energy and make low-speed takeoff more sensitive. It is best suited to drivers who value throttle response, faster transient behavior, and performance use over maximum factory-like smoothness.
Configuration
- EXEDY Part Number: NF05
- Configuration: Lightweight Flywheel
- Construction / Character: EXEDY application-specific flywheel
- Torque Rating: Not rated independently as a clutch torque-capacity figure
- Best Suited For: Clutch service or performance builds requiring the listed EXEDY flywheel fitment
Application Recommendation
For 2007–2008 INFINITI G35 / 2008–2013 INFINITI G37 / 2003–2009 Nissan 350Z + more, this configuration makes the most sense when its intended duty matches the vehicle's actual power and use. Avoid overspecifying clutch aggressiveness: the best setup is the one that maintains the needed torque reserve while preserving usable modulation and protecting the rest of the driveline.
