Use the JWT or Clutchmaster clutch.

After that ACT.

All other is ****.

Spec clutches are the worst.

Now i am kind of worried about my clutch. It seems you have not had any luck with the exedy at all. Mine has been in for about 5K and no issues yet, but i also am probably around 1/2 the power you are.

i find all these post really ****ty for the owners. maybe i am the lucky one but i have yet to have a clutch fail on me. i have used 3-4 different 6puck sprung clutches from many different manufactures. hell even my JGY clutch held up. i am very meticulous when i install them and MAKE sure to break them in for at least 500 miles.

This Sentra is the only car that has really been giving me problems with clutches.

I went with a Clutchnet 6 puck sprung (because of good first hand experiences in Zs) with a new Exedy PP. I'm not looking for all out power, just a fun daily. It's nice to have the car back, that's for sure. I had some spare time yesterday and fixed my amp, now if I could get the A/C working I'd be set...

Also, I've gotten used to quiet cars, open 3in dump is kinda loud... I'm going to weld up an exhaust soon.

On the DE, I had an Exedy OEM setup with over 30k miles with no problems at all. You'll be fine I think.

I had a clutchmasters spit a spring out. 246whp/218tq.
Only 1 data point though, and their kit was from like 5 yrs ago - maybe better now.
I've heard others have good luck with them.


I replaced it with a TZ stage 2 kit from South Bend Clutch - DXD High Performance Clutches
Click on product info page.
Holding good so far - currently around 275-285whp.
