Default Question about some clutches.. help

I'm looking to get a new clutch an fly wheel. Does anyone have any suggestions for a nice smooth clutch. My stock one is real heavy, hard to push down, and hard to get into gear, but thats probably because my throw out and pilot bearing are going.

What year model, what kind of mods, and how many miles? I have never heard of any clutch specific problems inherent on a stock 350Z.

I am going with a Carbonetic twin disk clutch. It may be a little over the top torque wise, but it's supposed to be close to bulletproof, quiet, lightweight and still have stock foot petal pressure. $2150 shipped w/o the throwout bearing. There are cheaper clutches availible, but I don't know of any other to recommend.

just get a stock replacement. Otherwise an oem replacement Spec or ACT will hold just fine.
