Recommended budget friendly clutch for drifting
I'm replacing my clutch soon and I want to get into drifting a bit and im looking for advice for a new clutch kit that is both daily friendly and can take abuse from clutch kicking. Looking for something under 500. Was thinking about getting one from eBay but I don't know what brands are reliable.
any input is welcome. TY

Get something from a reputable source. Under $500 or under 500ft-lbs? Are you looking for a flywheel too?
JWT and ACT are my go-tos for daily & track.

I recommend Competition Clutch. I had a stage 3 on my 420whp vortech 350z. Engagement was very smooth but firm, was super happy with it. Prices are super competitive, I got my stage 4 on
sale for $550 (friggin steal) from GBP Performance in Quebec (free shipping in Canada too). Im going with Stage 4 Competition Clutch on my new higher HP 350z build.

There is nothing budget friendly about drifting anymore.
I can get you into a clutchmasters fx100 or Mcleod tuner series street supreme for less than $500 as my work is an authorized retailer.

Yea I'm looking for a flywheel also. I saw z1 has a good kit. Does anyone know if it's a reliable clutch? Jwt and act are a bit out of my budget at the moment but I might go for them when I go turbo

I'm running a stage 3 eBay clutch(and probably the only one here running an eBay clutch) and eBay 13lb aluminum flywheel at ~335wtq. The clutch was like $70 and the flywheel was like $170. I would recommend.
I had a "stage 1" eBay clutch, but it did not last at 335wtq for more than 1 run at the strip before slipping.
The stage 3 grabs hard and I think you'll like it.
This is the exact kit I'm running.

My Z does not need a clutch yet. I have a feeling it still the factory clutch on there. I think ill be going with one of the Z1 kits when im ready to replace. For drifting I would probably go with ACT or JWT but thats just my preference
