Clutch Kit Poll

First off this is my first 5spd it's a 98 5spd in my 96 I'm not really sure what this tranny can hold so I would appreciate your help in my decision here's the run down....
Ok I need a clutch Kit that can hold atleast 300hp and 300ftllbs+. I'll have Hoosier DR for the track but I'm not intending on having this as a track only car more for the street. Basically out of these companys what will be the choice? does the name brand matter? Should I concentrate on only keeping in mind that
1. it's a ceramic-metallic disk
2.Heavy Duty PP
3. ???

I hear that they make different grades of ceramic finishes if so does anyone have info on the differ grades with each company?

I called Bully and told them what kind of pwer I'm pushing and this is what he suggested:
Bully Clutch Kit Stage 4 - $550 which includes ball bearing pressure plate (smoother ingagement is what he says ) 4 puck Ceramic disc, Algn tool , pilot bearing.




and is this

Ram PowerGrip Stage 2 6-puck kevlar......No complaints only burnt rubber. This setup is supposidly for towing and such. It holds strong and allows for smoking second and chirping third, that is if your into burning tires up. $300 for the kit but I would look around for something more suitable for your HP. ( I think it would hold no problem though). I'd say go with some puck setup and def. a heavy duty PP and not worry too much about brand name but the actual install is done right. You get what you pay for....most of the time.

Kevlar or Ceramic??
Isn't Kevlar more forgiving than Caramic more for the street But I want to launch really hard when I need to ..I hear Ceramic is better...

People say the stock clutch sucks, but I checked the part # in the FAST program, and it's the same clutch in the 3.5 Altima?? So I wonder how the Altima clutches are holding up?

The silver supra blew up a few months ago, but has been rebuilt and just recently set the record for fastest 6 spd Supra in the US. I'm using a JWT clutch.

ClutchNet is the only way to go IMHO. A few of us have the 6puck sprung hub clutch and it is loved. Especially in FI applicaitons.
