i called the centerforce tech today and he said the dual friction will hold up to 600TQ and the DFX will hold up to 700TQ so i think i might go with the DFX just to be safe

No, for the SPEC clutch, you can buy a stock flywheel at autozone for $167 with a hundred dollar core.

Get the clutch you need otherwise it will be too stiff for how much torque you are making. How much torque do you think you are making right now?

I run a cheap chinese Xtd 10.5" 6 puck clutch with a stock 8 bolt 2000 gt flywheel. Over 516 for one year and 598 for another year still holding up with no slipping, and light pedel feel. Not bad for 185 dollar clutch.

My buddy just bought an XTD for his 240sx. I'd never heard of them before, nice to hear they hold up.
