When I sold centerforce u bass ton break. I had one in my car also. Broke. You couldn't germs to run one if you paid me. Their customer service was terrible also. Wouldn't stand behind a thing. Even as a retailer.
I started to sell ACT after this and had great luck.
To be honest, unless you make more power than stock, a good quality stick replacement should be fine. And I'm not talking autozone.
Something made by luk or valeo.
I believe exedy is making domestic clutches, they are the performance division of daikin. Which is a Japanese oem manufacturer for Nissan etc. If they make something I need, its gonna come from them.

for a flywheel just get a stock unit, and clutch wise get a Luk clutch, it is a stock replacement one and works great. i have 35" mudders, duel lockers, and 4.56 gears. i have been running the stock clutch replacement for about 20,XXX miles now and have never had a problem, hooks every time!
