I have a z32 NA clutch on my rb20 with rb20 flywheel. Rb25 flywheel is exactly the same.

I bought a stage 2 from southbend clutches it was $330 or so and its amazing. Super smooth and super durable. It will last 3x as long as the oem 300zx clutch in the same conditions because its kevlar. And it can handle 390ft-lbs of torque.

Forget XTD they are so hit and miss with quality its not even funny. My friend had one on his na ka and got it to slip on demand. He had to buy a real clutch once his self-built 350whp KA-T setup went on.

I'm using an RPS MAX street clutch for a NA Z32. No problems.

Im using a spec S3 on my rb25 , I know in the past few years spec has really stepped their game up. I had a spec in my evo at one time and would lock me out of gear after 9k RPM I ended up going with a twin clutch set up that ended the problems. If you plan on going big power and want streetability id just get a twin plate now. The spec I bought says its good for 540 tq so who knows. I really do not plan or care for the single plate to last long after I upgate the turbo and fuel system. I plan on getting a twin plate for the rb this is just to hold me by. I guess it all depends on how much you have to spend.
