i was looking at some clutchs and i have heard good things about the act, and the centerforce. i only plan to have about 350hp. so is there one that would work better then the other. pedal feel is not a big deal to me.

If you are only shooting for 350 then the single Exedy is a good price, and as I've said before, I've only heard great things about them.

I have heard bad things about centerforce and turbo cars from owners, but I have never actually owned one.

Price includes shipping. This is for a Z32 na but I've been told those fit correct?

The clamping is 59% better than stock which puts it up to 345ish ftlbs capacity based off the Z32's stock 217 ftlbs.

Can anyone clarify that ACT's wear out quickly? I heard this somewhere, but please only answer if you own/owned one.

Hope this helps.

The NA 300ZX clutch and pressure plates will work with the RB25 right?what about the flywheel?

if so it looks like http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com has some SPEC clutch kits in the $300 range. any one used one of these clutches before?
