Which Clutch would you recomend?

Unfortunately my stock clutch died again, therefore I was looking for something stronger this time around. My current mods are motorstorm pulley, catman y-pipe, test pipe, custom maxima dual exhaust, and stillen intake. Just wanted your guys recomandations on which clutch i should get. I'm also getting a fidanza alluminum flywheel.
Also I am kinda interested in 3.5L swap maybe sometime in summer... So should I get like a stage II clutch instead?
Thanks for all the input

Stage II is nice..

But from what i've heard/ and my personal experience. the 5th gen clutch is a good replacement. and it handles the 3.5motor. but if u plan on doing more than a 3.5 swap( SC, Turbo, etc..) i'd do the Stage II..

The ACT Stage 1 will be fine for an N/A VQ35 setup.

If you want a replacement with a little more grip the 5th gen setup is hands down the recommendation of this board.

Goalie Keg is having great success with his 5th gen setup + VQ35.

now is going to be the time to decide if you will or will no swap the 3.5L into your car. If you are not going to get the 5th gen clutch setup, If you are the same clutch could work but if you plan on being aggressive with it semi-frequently a beefier clutch might be desired.

so far im leaning toward ACT
Part #NM1-HDSS - Heavy Duty Pressure Plate, Performance Street Disc
Torque Capacity: 362 ft/lbs.
supposedly its the weakest one they have, but i think it will be plenty for 3.5L in the future...
