Default D series to B series transmission swap/ clutch problems

I've been havin issues getting a clutch for my d16 turbo. I'm running 300BHP and can't get a clutch to last any length of time. So i was wondering.

whats the best clutch out there for a d sreies turbo . or alternatively

Does anyone do a conversion kit to make a B series tranny fit onto a D series engine ?? then i can go for a twin plate.

action clutch is what you want.

2MS or 2MD

What clutch manufacturers have you already tried? I had an Action Clutch on my SOHC and I loved it, but when I got the same clutch for my B18B, I hated it. I'm not sure if the build quality went down or something, but it would squeal and chatter a lot. I'm running a Clutchmasters Stage 3 now, and I love it.

So far its always been ACT clutches i've used.

On my third now.

Where's the best place to get an action clutch. (remembering I need it shipped to the UK ASAP)

Whats the difference between the 2MD and the 2MS ???

Check the sponsors' forum for Action Clutch dealers. 2MD is a dual pressure plate with and unsprung 6-puck ceramic disc, while 2MS is a dual pressure plate with a sprung 6-puck ceramic disc.
