well the stock clutch should be able to handle that depending on the milage but if your looking for an aftermarket clutch i would go with the ACT-NIS-KA-STR1 and thats for the 91-94 240sx with DOHC and that will run ya a good $340 but its well worth it and you can get that at srswap.com

it's not the clutch in most cases as the person driving it. I know my buddy lasted over 125K on his stock clutch, whereas most people's last 75-95K, I've seen some gf's clutch's that don't last 60K.
Stock clutches won't handle stuff like that, most people go ACT, but there are options out there. Start with his link, and go from there.

don't forget that if you get a clutch that grabs really hard like one with an unsprung puck clutch, you will break drivetrain parts and usually your transmition is first. i have done it. if you want to upgrade only do so based on what you have done and plan on doing. ACT is more expensive, but i think they make the best. heavy duty pressure plate(2100lbs) w/ streed disc is a very good and popular combination. the 2600 or xtreme pressure plate makes for a very stiff petal and breaks tranny parts. i have successfully killed many parts of my transmition with my 2600, but it holds a $h!t load of power! Good luck.

i have a centerforce stage 2.
it's great. i drift with it and never have any problems.
i also used an exedy stage one, tht was great except it would get hot after a while of really hard shifting and clutch kicks

i drove my exedy stage one(stock replacement) for about 7000 miles and when i replaced it it still had a ton of life left.
that is with drifitng everyday and ***-clowning
