Talking Clutch for beginners. What should I buy?

Hi, all, wanna say WHATS UP. This is my 1st post btw.

Anyways I have posted the same question on zilvia.net, and wanna to see the opinions from you guys as well.

The question is simple. What should I get for clutches and light weight flywheels for beginners. I'm leaning more into RPS Sport clutch and Exedy stage I.

For the light wheel I have only found SPEC-lightweight Aluminum flywheel.

Please be advise my engine is NOT SR20's. It's a Ka. All suggestion and personal experiences are welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Is there any motor work done to the car at all or is it basically stock? Are you planning on doing anything that would add significant power to the motor?

Thnx Chiefgmsr for the suggestion.

To S13 240's questiion:

As of right now I only have a Apex - dual Muffler in the back. The car is Automatic right now and very much bone stock. I'm gonna convert it into a stick, that's why I wanna get all the parts ready and install it all at once.

Currently and most likely i'm not gonna do much motor work in the future as well, so that answer should be a no.


I think eventually I will do a swap, but that's later down the line when I save up more $ for it.

Thanks in advance

stay with stock or a basic if you are not doing much to the engine its no point really. The main point for upgrading clutch is when the engine is put under more stress from the average stock to more power needing a better aftermarket clutch. either stock or very low close to stock for now my friend. thats what i would do in my opinion.

You could do D21 flywheel, with 280zx clutch, little larger than stock, or you could just go OEM
