Default Building a drift car! CLUTCH HELP!

A little bit about me ! My name is Ben and I am building my 350 to drift . I don't daily it because I have a second car . I keep it in a garage with my closest friend who has a 88 supra and is currently attending Lincoln tech automotive school. We are both building for drift but I want to make sure that I put the best of the best in my car . Money is not a problem because I work my *** to get these parts. First things first I bought my Z with 88 thousand miles clutxh was worn down but then I also learned how to drive stick on the Z . Worst idea ever considering 3 month later I need a new clutch and flywheel . HERE'S THE IMPORTANT PART I need help getting the best possible clutch/flywheel combination . Now I have heard fidanza and competition clutch are pretty good but I really wouldn't know . Also people are saying go with a lightweight flywheel because of faster revving when Helps gaining Speed when I loose it in a slide. I also hear that going with a heavy *** flywheel is good because there is less chance of it breaking . SO LET ME KNOW!

Sorry that this was so long but I need help! Thanks

OS Giken would be one of the better clutch setups. JWT on the bargain side of things

OS Giken required there flywheel, for the JWT, I would run the JWT flywheel. Any other clutch I would run a JWT flywheel.

For drifting, Clutch side steps you will be doing drifting and heat generated in the clutch I would choose a ceramic puck with a steel flywheel or a twin disk OS Giken.

South Bend Race Steel Flywheel
