So the original clutch is finally starting to give out on the car,

and i was quoted by the mechanic $1000 to put a new clutch in it.

I'm pretty clueless about clutches and he was talking about putting a ceramic clutch in it?

After i did some research apparently ceramic clutches are a pain for daily driving?

But anyway it would be appreciated if someone could point me in the right direction

The cars a 95 r33.

Just put a standard clutch in if the car is standard, and going by the fact you are posting in the NA section I'm assuming the car is pretty basic

therefore as above, standard NA clutch or if you want a little more bite a standard turbo clucth

Im used to driving with a incredibly hard clutch right now, to the point where your leg hurts after awhile.

Will a stock clutch handle a bit of punishing? been dropped etc etc

Other then that i was looking at a cushion button clutch?

Cushion button will probably blow your gearbox.

if your car is std NA then definitely wont need anything special thats for sure...

this. NA skylines aren't really powerful and with mods they aren't going to be that much above stock power. certainly not high enough to need a heavy duty clutch unless you are the type to regularly dump the clutch to chirp the wheels (about all a NA skyline is capable of, LOL). in which case what you should buy is a push bike and hand your licence in. or buy a commodore so you give them a bad image instead of damaging the already poor image imports have

    • As long as its NOT a HyperSHITtune, youll be fine.
    • First time visitor and currently getting ready to start work on my HK Premier.  Its all stock, 186 with 3 on the tree.  The only mod i have right now is extractors.  I am hoping to get some guidance on slightly modifying the engine to bring a little more power. Just going for a nice, comfortable cruiser.  The car is very straight, however i have been out of the country for 20 years and its been gathering dust at a family farm.  Will be doing quite a bit of body work to cut out some small rust areas (frnt quarter panels and a few other small bits) and fix up the paint.  Will be redoing the interior (its currently black and the seats are in real need of recovering and respringing the driver side (its front bench seat).  The dash needs a little TLC, but no real damage.  As my heater has degraded I am considering fitting something after-market that will be both heater/AC (recommendations here are always welcome). Wanting something discrete that will allow me to use the same controls and not be obvious once inside the car.   For the engine, i have been told i could consider upgrading my cam (imagine i would need a new head as well) and putting a new carby (currently the original stromberg).  However not sure what is going to be the best route.  Would certainly welcome any comments/suggestions.  As  a final step I am looking at changing the wheels. Current hubcaps are in dire need of refurbishment or replacement (imagine its a bit like hens teeth).  Thinking of some clean/classic looking mags (7-inch should be more than enough - not going for a large change in look).  Welcome any comments/advice and of course any questions. 
    • I got the ARC M079 due to the space constraint.  Been running mint for the last 3 years.  Plazmaman also seems like a really solid choice but not used myself.    Hunt around for a better price but this is what I have - https://www.rhdjapan.com/arc-brazing-intercooler-smic-m079-bnr32.html
    • Wanted to follow up on this. Did you end up getting the M073? Still deciding on what to get between nismo m073-79 and plazaman.
