Im getting a fidanza flywheel for my 95 240sx so i figured i should go ahead and get a new clutch kit to. The flywheel is on ebay for like 300 shipped. I was wondering if i could find it cheaper in a package or which clutch kit i should get at the same time.

I also have Fidanza flywheel and got Exedy OEM replacement clutch together. They work pretty good. I wanted to have better one, but it was pricey. For me that combination was perfect within my budget and came out very well.

Is it alright to get the exedy clutch off ebay- there only like 110 shipped. Also how hard was it to install?

I also bought all of mine off eBay and I couldn't find cheaper price than eBay. All of them were authentic.

As far as install goes, you remove the trsnamission and replace them. I put them on when I did 5 speed swap, so your situation is different than mine. I had to remove auto pilot bushing and whole nine yard.

You need a ridiculously long extension about 3-4 feet? And you can get to the top bolt with no problem.

I am using a centerforce dual friction clutch with my fidanza flywheel, and so far I have no complaints. Some people say that the centerforce doesn't last but this clutch is very picky when in come to break in. If you don't break it in properly then it will not last. But, if you do then it will be fine.
