I saw on the RB section there were some good reviews on these ebay clutches with the brand XTD.....in the case of the RB guys they use a NA 300zx clutch as a stock replacement or some other high performance NA 300zx clutch....in our case with the SR's we use an SR high performance clutch or a like 89 maxima clutch as a stock replacement....I went looking on ebay and found the XTD clutch for the 1984-2001 maxima's for get this.....only $170 plus $18 shipping so it was $188 total.....they say its good for 385lbs of torque but I dunno about that....not the best feel in the world the RB guys say but you cant beat it for the buck although,it has a ductile iron pressure plate with some pretty beefy looking fingers on it,a ceramic metallic mix material on the disk so it should handle heat pretty well and double springs in the hub....all the holes seem to line up too on the SR fly wheel with the dowel pin in place so Im pretty sure it should fit just fine,here is the pic of the flywheel and the pressure plate and the other is the disk of course

looks just like the spec. How much are you saving by going xtd and not spec?

well I just read on thespeedfactor.com that the 240sx KA24 stage 3 clutch kits go for $320.....this XTD is advertised as being their own stage 3 clutch kit too..only thing is I dont know if the throwout bearing supplied with it will work.....anyone want a picture of it to confirm if it will work?
