I don't know where I heard they were torque to yield, but I can't find any good info on it so I'm gunna stop mentioning it. They are (highly) likely not torque-to-yield. =/

main and head bolts are torqued to yield.

other bolts are torqued in accordance to their material properties or "grade" etc.

Pressure plate bolt torque spec is 16-22 ft-lbs. (22-29 Nm)
I have the FSM open to the page right now.

And now that I'm looking at it... I see why I torqued my flywheel bolts to 90 ft-lbs. I remembered the FSM said to torque to 90-something. It was just 83-93 Newton-meters, not ft-lbs.

Just cut to the chase and called the local nissan who said torque to 14lbs then 22lbs. Hope they ain't messin with me. A quick google search yielded similar numbers so I'll roll with it.

Correction! Wrong damn clutch! The PP is too small, won't bolt to the flywheel. I'm pretty devastated at this point...sigh.

I ordered a clutchmasters fx400 6 puck through a vendor on amazon, my buddy offered to pay half as a birthday gift and he gets 10% discount and free shipping on amazon. HorsepowerFreak, the vendor, originally shipped a 4 puck. They said the PP is the same and to hang on to it and send everything else back. Cool, accidents happen.

Upon re-delivery they failed to include the TO bearing and alignment tool. After 2 weeks of non response I ordered the TOB from Nissan and dug out my alignment tool from a few years back. Now today, it's just simply the wrong clutch PERIOD. I get nothing but random BS and Japanese writing when googling the part number on the clutch. SIGH!
