Ok I have a 2008 nissan frontier with a vq40de in it. I need to change the clutch in my truck and im not really finding any options other than OEM. Is the 350z and frontier transmission's the same? Can I use an upgraded 350z clutch in my truck?

There has to be a nissan tech out there that can help.

-thanks in advance

Not the same, The 4.0 uses a 260mm clutch set up and the Z33 uses a 240 and 250mm depending on year.

I looked into the 4.0 clutch, ordered to look at it and it is totally different. Huge pressure plate, Very small/narrow disk facings but is in 260mm form.
