E-Bay Clutches???

Does anyone have any experience with the E-Bay Stage 1 or Stage 3 clutches by ProCluth, XTD, or F1. All three are around the same price. My 95 240 is only midly mod'd (intake, header, exhaust, 91 cams, pulley, CF hood, 8.5 accel ign. wires). I'm also installing a flywheel at the same time as the clutch (which is soon since the clutch slips loose in 4th and 5th gear when I punch it, not 1st 2nd or 3rd tho). Does anyone have any of these clutches and how do you like it? I'm leaning toward XTD.

Also, does Fidanza make short shifters? For 240sx? Fidanza short shifters on ebay, good price too. Is this just a knock off or real thing?
Any advice is welcome.

I think those are generic clutch brands. Not entirely sure. I try not to cheap out when it comes to buying parts for my car. Especially since I want "the best" parts with a name and the quality to back it up. That way, I'm ensured that I'd have something reliable.

F-1 is Dogg shiat my boy got one for his 300z slips like a motyher fuc$er.
Honestly if you get a Daiken/Exedy stage one sprung it works just as good as a stage 2 and you can get the whole kit for under $110 on ebay.
Don't fuc& with those sleezy imatations it's like a $2 *****.

Thanks for the replies and advice guys. Hey BigVin or DJ Rad where did you get the exedy stage 1? Would you say it would hold up to 220-240hp? I haven't been able to find an exedy stage 1 all that I've found is their oem replacement and then some pretty expensive race clutches (cera-metallic, etc.). Could you point me a contact or website that sells the exedy stage 1. Hey big vin my KA-T buildup will begin in the fall. Already have Garrett t4 at home waiting on the remainder of kit to be peiced together. Any input on that is also welcome.

can't remember the name of the ebay store I got my kit from but it was JDM at the begining of the title.
The Daiken/Exedy can defenitely handle 250whp......
I find it to be very comparible to my stage 2 compition 6puck sprung that I replaced it with.....
My wheels skirt in 3rd sometimes grips pretty tight.
P.M me if you need some KA info.........
