Default swapping out clutch disc

hey i have a quick question. since im building my motor for my 500whp build i know my clutch will not be able to hold the power. its rated at 400 ftlb. however Z1 motorsports sell a 6 puck CLUTCH DISC seperately for $125.
will it fit/work with any "Performance" pressure plate for a 350z.

heres the link

Wouldn't recommend it if you have a street full face disk now, reason being is a street disk is thicker than a puck disk which will change the pressure plate clamp load and ware limit on the pressure plate.

Basically pressure plates are set up to very tight tolerances
(or at least should be if done correctly) and are made to work correctly through out a clutch disks life. If you put a thinner disk in it will get to a point later on when the clutch wares that clamp load will start decreasing on the disk making your clutch ware out/slip sooner than it should.
