that sounds like it would be a great option. would you recomend any pressure plate your self? i know hpf has this one

but they want 450 thats outragiouse( i think) in a ideal situation i would like to end up paying about 325 for everything i would need( even that is pushing what i would like to spend since im not planning to build this motor untill 3 years from now when i have all the cash built up i dont need anything high power just long life that can be punished), do you think this is a realistic price?

You can also get Spec pressure plates individually. ACT and SPEC are really the only "affordable" options you're going to find which perform well and are still inexpensive. You'll want to hunt around and review reviews from other people before fixing your sights on one or the other and do read and compare all the specifications.

iv been looking around at it seems that it would be slightly cheaper to buy a clutch kit from act or spec rather than get a toyota clutch wich costs 114 and i get a 35% discount but to buy just the pressure plate will cost at least 300, and i dont really want to use a autozone kit( doesent really say reliable to me) there is this option

iv never used or hear of this company but if hoarse power freaks is selling them they must be decent( i also looked at there website it seems legetimet), iv also considered reuseing the factory pressure plate but this seems like an idea that will come back and haunt me( iv never cut this corner befor and i dont think i should start now)
