Opinions in Clutch Kit
I am recently looking for a clutch as my throw out bearing is bad and ive decided to just fix it as im still working on my car and its not even registered yet, that way summer comes i dont have to worry about sht!.

So that being said, i have been looking at this clutch kit, you guys tell me if this is a good idea or not ? My goal with this car is 350whp so the clutch is good for 362 ft/lbs of torque.

STREET CLUTCH KIT ACT HD Silvia Pulsar 240SX W/SR20DET | eBay

Please let me know with known experiences or better setup for the price if any out there ? Looking to buy this 2 weeks from now.

clutchmasters is great I have the fx400 6 puck sprung and it feels amazing.

Oh and for the OP I dont think you can use 240 clutches, I think theyre a larger disc than the fwd ones.

sprung with have springs on the clutch to help with dampen shock load. the stage 5 clutch will handle 450lbft +. I run one in my car as well.

Guess that's gonna be the one then, besides it's 100 bucks cheaper that the ACT i was looking at and holds 100 ft/lb more, just can't go wrong.

I had the act setup and changed for the cm setup because the pedal feel. the act is real hard and the cm feels almost stock.
