Clutch!

I'm replacing my clutch, and am looking for opinions. I want one to last me ages, but nothing too fancy. I know there are different types of clutches, but I honestly don't know much about them. I have heard of a 6-buck clutch, or puck? Again, I have zero knowledge on clutches or transmissions. I was recommended to get an Exedy Stage 2 clutch kit, but again, I don't know where to look or start. I've been to custommaxima.com and saw they had it there, but I'm just looking for the best price and the best value. Thanks.

i just replaced mine with a OEM nissan clutch from the dealership. Feels great. Stage 2 is TOOOOOOOOO much if you are not boosted and/or running high horsepower. if you are just driving normally, get an OEM clutch.

Don't get a staged clutch unless you did work to the transmission. I put a stage 4, 4 puck and damaged 2 transmissions. I just got an exedy stage 1 that I'm gonna put in with my 3rd tranny.

No clutch will last you ages. I thought that same thing acting a fool with a stage 3 and it litterally lasted 1 year.

Thanks for the input all, I have plans for boost, but not for awhile. Not even sure if the car will last that long. I'll probably just go with an OEM for times sake. I figured I wasted about 30 dollars in gas just revving to the point where my car would move. Thanks again all.
