I am making around 400hp now and its time for a new clutch and flywheel. What should i get? I need it to be able to be driven on the weekends so i dont want something too full race if that makes sense.

400 at the crank or at the wheel? what trans are you running? 400 crank most aftermarket cltches will hold, 400 wheel now thats a bit different, ACT has one fo the best reputations out there, Competition cltcches and southbend both offer beefy units at a much more consumer friendy price than act

Not really. I have a Spec stage 3 clutch in my car. I love it.

Is this in your M30? There are three stock transmissions for the Z31. Which one is it that you have?

I don't think you know what turbo you have either, no such thing as a t06, was the car built when you got it?
