Alright, So I'm driving and when it's idling and in nuetral, the car wants to die. It wants to die all the time. The clutch is chattery, it takes my whole weight to slam it to the floor to shift. It's a 4 puck un-sprung clutch, with a 10.5 lb steel flywheel. I got JDM SR20DET, with 440hp at the wheels. I want to upgrade the clutch but advice is needed. The car dying could be anything. It's running too rich, not sure how I'm goona change that. 300z MAF with JWT ECU remap. Any recommendations on a good coil pack kit?

440HP? I gotta see the dyno on this. Well since I can't diagnose your car Im gonna throw out some suggestions. I personally think it may be your coolant temp sensor that is making your car run like @ss. As for your clutch seems like you may need a new slave cylinder or a new clutch master cylinder. While you are down there go ahead and upgrade to a stainless braided clutch line.

Usually with a MAF problem the car WILL run at idle but when you attempt to dip into the throttle it will start to jerk and buck right?

I don't know you're rocking the SR DUB DET not me.

I dunno bout that, but I was having somewhat the same problem with my esss Arrr so I went to the parts store and picked up a MAFS cleaner and took my maf apart and cleaned it... its been running and idling great since then..
