Okay so ive ben looking at every good clutch kit out there, from SZ to soutbend to RPS etc. Im not looking to spend a huge amount of money as in 550+ shipping. that is simpy alot and overkill for what im doing.
Mods i have now (performance wise)
Single pop intake
740cc nismo Injectors/SZ Chip
Full stillen dual exhaust 2'5
Stock Boost

Whats going to come in the future (VERY SOON)
Along with the clutch kit, im buying-
SZ 3'' DP's
Full 3'' Exhaust aswell from Z1 (pg race exhaust)
Greddy Profec II Boost Controller
Upgraded SMIC's

And my car is at 60k, BUT when my turbos go bad i upgrading to sport 500's or something.
Now my problem is, i want a strong clutch that will be able to hold the upgraded turbo with Supporting mods.
So far ive looked as
$534 SZ/RPS Max Street Clutch @700ft pounds https://specialtyz.com/shop/sz-sport-st ... 35s-9.html

$510 RPS Max Street @525ft pounds http://www.conceptzperformance.com/Cart ... 8.9.251.14

$450 Southbend Max Street @525ft pounds http://www.conceptzperformance.com/Cart ... 8.9.251.14

365$ ive also greatly considered the SZ Sport Street Clutch which is over @200 ft pounds over oem, so looking at around @520ft pounds. https://specialtyz.com/shop/300zx/clutc ... vq35s.html

Im sorry i keep posting clutch questions but can only research so much. let me know what you would do.
looking for best price with best holding power.
if you have a better suggestion i would greatly appreciate it. i also know the mods i plan on doing can hold alot more power than what i have and are going for. thanks alot guys.

I think you should just get this one;
$534 SZ/RPS Max Street Clutch @700ft pounds https://specialtyz.com/shop/sz-sport-st ... 35s-9.html

It will hold hard launches and it will last plus it has alot more room to allow you to increase your power level.

Ask him for his recommendation.

He recommended I get the SZ High 5, so I did and I love it!
