Whereabouts are you in FL?

and which clutch you get depends on how you use the car- an unsprung racing clutch will suck bigtime in daily traffic...

Depending on your usage- If you want an ACT- HDSS or XTSS. In my opinion, as above, stay away from the puck discs. Check Advanced Clutch web site for info. The factory clutch is great also, as my original TII clutch lasted 155,000 miles. Disc was still good, but PP was weak. I went back to the original Mazda equipment when the drivetrain was done over in 2002. Many sites to check, RX7 Store, Mazdatrix, Racing Beat etc.

If ur looking for something stockish then dont use the puck discs. Not that great for daily driving.

Daily Driver ? Use a stock clutch or non-puck

I drive a maxed out '88 Convertible that sports Lambo Doors, Hood kit and even a 4 rotor motor soon.. But at the time that i needed a clutch i went with a stock clutch.. its easy on the driving and I found mine on ebay for about $95.00 plus shipping. It works great.. check out the pic of my car below.
