Default any 5 speed drivers with something other than stock clutch?

does anyone here have a different clutch from stock?

if so, how well does it perform? is it harder to slip into gears? more pedal pressure? rougher engagement?

strong clutch = less life time

so with weak power... i dunt think a new clutch is very necessary. that money can be used towards other things IMO

You can expect to get about 8+ years out of a clutch; esp if you are the only one learning on it.

My altima(96') has had 6 people learn on it and clutch(original, no repair) is still in good condition. in about a year or two after my brother learns on it, it will need to be repaired.

My only worries is the kaklunk noise people are talking about, never take a noise that sounds wrong to be a norm if everyones car has it =/ . Drive another car made by toyota, corolla, this noise is not a norm, its a flaw.
