Default Performance Clutch Help

I need help finding a performance clutch. I have no idea what to get. (What kind I should get, where should I get it) My clutch went out today and my mechanic is going to call me tomorrow to elt me know the sum of what's gonna need to be done but I'm pretty sure it's gonna need a new clutch and I'd rather get a performance as aposed to jsut a regular clutch. What stage should I get? I'm not looking for anything to crazy but something pretty solid. Please give links to any good sites or places to get it from. Thanks.

That one looks great and all but yeah... I most definatly don't have $2,000 dollars to spend on a new clutch. I guess I should've put some more details up there. I'm looking to spend no more than $500 dollars on the clutch itself so I'll still have room for labor costs. I'd looked at a simple Stage 1 performance clutch at clutch masters:

But wanted to see if you all had any better ideas or any opinions on that dealer and the clutch they're offering. Any ideas as to if clutchmasters is ok and if the stage 1 is a good choice?

You wouldn't happen to know if that clutch (Andys Auto) is extemly hard or if it's still good for everyday. I don't want some crazy rock hard clutch. If you could give me any kind of advice or information I'd appreciate it.

i'm piecing together my own kit. i went with the ACT Street Performance Clutch rated for 350hp (pictured) i got it for $115 shipped

Thursday i'll be picking up a Fidanza Flywheel (pictured) for $139 shipped

sometime next week i'll order the TO bearing (pictured) for $44

lastly i have to get the pressure plate (ACT) . (pictured) for $229 shipped


Do the math, i make out around $527 for a complete kit. so for you to be saying your willing to spend $500 on just the clutch, you can do alot better than that

is your car stock? if it is, and your just driving extra hard, i wouldnt go any higher than a stage one from anyone. if it just wore out due to normal wear and tear i would suggest just a OEM replacement from a quality brand such as exedy or something. no reason to step up if your not putting down more horses.
