What kind of clutch can i get for my SX and where can I find it?
Nissan qouted me something like R3000 for the clutch and pressure plate and R1000 for fitment.

thats probably a wise choice.
you're running quite a high output on your motor right. it may be a wiser choice to upgrade your clutch plate and pressure plate the way chemcool and draco did.
they took their old clutches in and had the clutch plate rebuilt into a copper puck type, and the pressure plate was rebuilt with a double diaphragm. big improvement, still cheaper than nissan.
also sokar and phinx know a place to have clutch plates converted to copper puck types!
good luck.

Freddie how is the drive with that clutch?? Can you still slip the clutch when at robot or trying to park?? Is it still drivabily??

Gary, This clutch kit was made up by Louis Lima @ Wesbank. He said to me give it some time and it will settle and shudder less. Exactly that happened. Awesome. Slight shudder initially but now a days perfect. It grips nicely. No regret at all.

Cause I got a cutton clutch but is not taking the power since the latest mods so am in the market for a new one. My one now is great drives like a normal clutch and want to get something that will be the same.
