CLutch and Flywheel

I am needing a clutch because mine is slipping something fierce. I want to get a lightened flywheel and a clutch. I have a 90z 2+2 n/a and was going for a OEM clutch and a Fidanza lightened (11lbs) flywheel. Can I use the OEM clutch kit with this flywheel or will I need to get upgraded clutch assembly. I just have no real power upgrades and am thinking the price for the OEM clutch is more reasonable for my set up. If I need a more performance clutch, what is good for stock car with JWT intake? Thank for your info.

does anyone know where I can find a OEM flywheel since I have to replace it with the clutch? I am considering the light weight one but I heard it is better to stay OEM.

Go ahead and get the Fidanza. You won't regret it. There's plenty of threads on the subject here.
What are you paying for a stock clutch? I suggest you go to specialtyz's website and take a look at the RPS line.

the OEM clutch kit is only $95 and an upgraded one is like $300. Since I dont really need a bunch of clamp due to no power upgrades to speak of, it just is not worth the price. What do you think? I think I might go for the Flywheel though, but do you know where I can find the OEM one just to compare prices? thanks

If you really want a stock flywheel, check ebay. They're on there all the time. It might be less expensive for you to just have the flywheel refinished.
You should consider the lighter flywheel though. The performance benefits outweigh any negatives.
