Need to replace the clutch on my '95 240sx. Where is the best place to purchase a clutch kit. I am located in Atlanta but if the best deal is elsewhere that will work.

Hi and welcome to NICO Club!

For my '95 I've gotten used to the standard clutch kits. I get the Exedy OEM style one. If you have light to no mods for power, it should be plenty sufficient. Online has had the best price for that kit for me every time, though I do like brick-and-mortar stores. So, it's worth shopping around for online first as most stores post their pricing online these days. You'll want some brake fluid for the clutch lines. You may decide you want to replace your slave cylinder as well. Also, many people bypass the clutch booster hardline. You may want to do that as well. You'll want to borrow/ rent a pilot bushing removal tool (they're free to borrow from Autozone here in California). You should use a torque wrench and the FSM specifications for your bolts on the flywheel and transmission bell-housing. You may want to buy a large 27mm socket for your crank pulley so you can anchor it to the ground or something. That will help you stabilize the driveshaft while you turn the bolts on the flywheel side of things.
