you need a whole clutch kit not just a new pressure plate.

That would depend on what wore out/broke.

Im not sure what wore out, but i have a little clutch left, because i was able to nurse it home by putting it in first and starting it i turned the key the car started moving forward with clutch pushed in and it cranked and i was able to shift with the clutch barely if i matched rpms, and would you recommend an exedy oem replacement over the xtd stage 2 that just blew out?

XTD is complete **** and if you're cheap then yes in theory you could reuse the PP but why ?. the flywheel can be machined and re used. Exedy or another reputable brand will be fine.

you'll find out when you drop the trans and are able to inspect the condition of the clutch components, no one here is psychic....

this

if the flywheel has no gouging and just is glazed you can usually hit it with an air sander with 180 and get the glaze off

if you feel any gouges or high low spots it has to be resurfaced
