clutch combo

First of all I searched. And second please give advice only if u have been thru it not read about it. 02 max. I been thinking about my power loss and it could be a clutch. If it is heres what I wanna know.

Heard about 350 z clutch and fidenza fly wheel but no one says what year clutch.
If I decide to go on a cheaper route will nissan oem be good enough for just bolt on mods or would anyone recommend exedy oem kit?

If I need a clutch that bad im probably gonna go the cheaper route but I don't wanna be changing it again within another 120k miles.

Whats the best cheapest route to go just incase I have to. Am I rite thinking labor alone is gonna cost around 600 in the north Jersey area

You would be doing a 03-05 350z set and there will be unsatisfactory issues due to you using RWD setup vs. FWD setup just do oem or JWT.

I just had it confirmed its the clutch. Would the pressure plate need to be changed too? Hes charging me 350 in labor. I called nissan for oem parts. 147 for the clutch and 2something for the pressure plate.

the best practice is to replace all the components Clutch, PP, Bearing all at the same time. you would hate to put out the labor to change the bearing at a later time.
