Default S/C G35 question about stock clutch

My brother is looking at a 2003 G35 6 spd thats got an ATI procharger. It has all supporting mods like headers, intake, exhaust. Has only 16k miles... the only problem (well maybe a problem) is the car has the stock clutch, flywheel, transmission... basically thats all stock. The car is making just about 400rwhp.

How long is the stock clutch/flywheel good for? I haven't dealt with FI motors in these cars so I am asking you guys. If it is suggested to upgrade what would you recommend he upgrade to? He won't be adding anymore power really. But obviously doesn't wanna clutch that is gonna get eaten.

If you guys think he should upgrade, for 400rwhp what clutch thats a good price is recommended. And is the only thing he need to replace is the clutch? Links would be awesome

With the ATI Procharger , I would be more concerned with what engine management is on the car . The one that comes with the kit doesnt have any timing retard capabilities . It's only for fuel .
Clutches wear out over time . As long as it isnt slipping now . If he buys the car ...wait till it starts to go before replacing it
