    Default looking for a perfect cltuch ?? any opinions?

    i drive a 02 maxima 6spd...fully bolted blah blah blah

    right now i have the stock clutch with the stock flywheel

    im looking to keep the stock flywheel and get a clutch(stage 1?) that will handle like stock but grab very good when im having fun with the car

    my car is a dd so no lightweight fly for me or a agressive clutch

    also what is a good brand to buy?

    just my personal experience, i gotta comp clutch stage 3- pedal feels VERY similar to stock, main difference is its just a bit "grabbier" during engagement. I love the feel of it so take it for what its worth

    "I think we need to do a little street racing 101 and understand that, you know... as a general courtesy you should, uh, floor your car an additional 100mph over the speed in which you start. It's just like the, uh, '100mph courtesy'... You start at 60, you don't let off 'til 160. You start at 30, you AT LEAST go to 130. And attempting to, uh, run like Houston interstates with traffic directly in front of you... These 60 to 80 pulls; these 60 to 95mph pulls... What the fuck is that shit about?" -IMV Films

    Exedy stg 1. on my shit. Feels like stock and doesn't slip. Grabs fine under wide open, smooth engagement during commutes to work.

    I'd go with a stg 2. Suppose to have a stock feel (same PP as a stg I clutch would have) but the disc itself has a better friction material for longevity. But again, no personal exp there just going off of description comparisons

    I have a competition clutch stage 1, and combined with the Fidanza flywheel it's a major PITA to drive, NO slip.. It's on or off.

    I've done a pretty good amount of research lately on clutches. I've found Comp Clutchs, and Spec Clutches have just about as many negative as positive reviews. ACT mostly has good reviews, but for my car I'm scared their street clutch wont be enough in the future.
    Exedy would be nice, but for rocking a sentra flywheel, they only make "stage 1."

    Jwt has been praised by everyone who has ever had it, and I bet it deserves it. It is however, the one of the most expensive options.
    I Clutch Masters also has very good reviews, and is praised by many on here. From every review I've read, stage 3 could pass for a stock feel. So it really doesn't seem like it will be that bad.
