What clutch choose?

In about a month i'm getting a new clutch, and i was wandering what suggestions you guys had. SHould i stay with the OEM or go to a centerforce? I plan an putting a full exhaust, intake, cams so what should i choose.

well, consider this. I installed a 6-puck ACT clutch and an unorthodox flywheel and dropped my 1/4 mile time from 15.7 to 14.8.

I wouldn't say that a clutch would be why your 1/4-mile time dropped to 14.8. Indeed, clutch-grab does matter, but IMO, your lower time had more to do with your light flywheel and maybe a better R/T than your previous run. My opinion, ofcourse, includes the assumption that you ran the lower time with everything else being the same (like weight, tires etc.)

uncleBENSpwr, you need to first tell us how you intend to use your car (eg: more daily-driving than racing or vice versa etc) so we can help you decide what clutch setup is best for you.

I do use it for daily driving, but I will drag race.Mainly, I just want the car to feel stout when some civic pulls up to me.

An '00 SE disc with a JWT pressure plate would be a good idea.

Yea, the disc is. You can order the setup through JWT or Greg Vogel at Quality Nissan.
