If I replace my oem clutch and flywheel with stock ones again do I have to replace the pressure plate also? Or can I use the pressure plate on the car already? What about the throw out bearings that the dealership mention to me about?

If you're gonna replace your clutch and it seems to me like you want better performance out of it. Why not take a look at this?

As far as say handling more power yet still retaining streetability...If you've ever driven around in traffic with a Full Race Spec Clutch then you'll know what I'm talking about.

Anyone know if you need to do the pressure plate too? From what I have seen, it looks like if you change brands of clutch, you should match it with the same brand pressure plate -- but that might be salesperson speak. Is a new pressure plate needed for the same brand/OEM stock clutch?

I do believe you should change out the throw out bearing, however, as it tends to get a lot of wear.
