i have a 96 200sx ser waiting for the DET swap. the stock clutch is almost totally gone, and i need to install a new one. i have looked at the performance clutch on nopi with a 4 puck disc, and also the centerforce dual friction plate, i think it has 10 puck. anyone got any suggestions for which clutch will work well with a DET swap (ie holding power etc). i had an act street clutch in my 91 mr2 turbo, and was very pleased with the engagement, but the act street disc for the se-r is so expensive, i have a $350 budget. suggestions? thanks- jeff

I have the centerforce clutch and dont have any problems with it,I luv it and it feels stock on the pedal and it holds 18 pounds of boost lovely,and costs less than 300 bucks.good luk....
thanks for the feedback. jgycustoms.com had some good prices also, and i found a company called star clutch, they are local (from alabama) and have relatively cheap prices, and will replace any defects in less than 48 hrs. i have less than a week to make a decision, sunday is the only day i can undertake this project.

There is a company on eBay that sells the ACT Heavy Duty PP and Street Disc for $350 shipped, that is where I got my ACT. I really like the ACT although I have the street disc so I couldn't tell you about the puck. Personally, if I were to swap in a DET, I would use the Xtreme PP and the Street Disc because the pucks are just too harsh for daily driving...of course, this would put you over $350...some help I am
ok. thanks for the advice yall. i went on and order the act street disc with the hd plate. a dude a jgycustoms said it was good for 250 lbs/tq, im nowhere near that right now, maybe after the turbo swap i'll top 250 when i crank up the boost, but thats gonna be a minute, so here i am. any suggestions on the install? i have aquired use of a shop with a lift and air tools, so it should be relatively simple.

Good luck, I had my mechanic do it. I find clutch jobs a nightmare.
