clutch question

my clutch is starting to slip and chatter. i was wandering if any of you guys could maybe recomend where to buy my clutch from, or at least what is a good price to pay.(i don't have any mods, and i am not sure of the condition of my flywheel). thanks.

I just replaced my clutch last saturday and i bought mine from nissan for $180 and that was the clutch kit with everything, and i got my flywheel turned for $35, i recommend getting your flywheel turned anytime you replace a clutch. It all depends on if you want a performance or regular clutch, I dont care about the performance b/c im probably going to sell my max next July!

what would be the difference between durability of a centerforce/act street clutch to a stock oe clutch?

Some people have said bad things about the Centerforce Dual Friction and prefer the ACT (Matt I think?) saying the CF gives out too quickly. Try searching for past posts, or posting a more specific question. (I tried searching for "clutch" a while back and got zip.)

Be aware also, that if you replace an OEM-style clutch with a high performance upgrade, the clutch pedal effort will increase - maybe not much, but it will be stiffer. Also, unless you race/drive hard a lot, or have lots of horsepower-adding mods, you don't even need a Centerforce or ACT.

The Centerforce stage I clutch sucks.

I think a cluthmaster or ACT will be better.
