Default Whats a good clutch?

Well, my clutch is completely gone now on my del sol. I have a d15b7 motor and i want to know whats a good brand clutch that is cheap and reasonable for daily driving? Im looking for a clutch that can last me along time and that can handle minor bolt ons later on? And what else would i need besides a flywheel and clutch? Should i also change my throw out bearing as well? Alright thanks.

i would just spin the whole stud out throw the stud in a vice and get the wheel lock off and then slap the stud back in. 1 extra step but easier to work with off the car ya know?

How is the stud going to come out of the hub?

I'd drill a large hole in the stud and tap on the wheel lock with a hammer to snap the stud. If it doesn't snap easy, drill a bigger hole. You may need a new hub if the stud stripped it out while spinning. It's more likely that the stud stripped but you never know. If the hub seems good after you put a new one in, I'd still spot weld the head of the stud to the hub (like you do with extended studs).
