Autozone/Pepboys/Partsamerica usually carry several clutch kits.
Which one are you asking about? PN? cost?

I'm in need of a clutch and AZ was actually too expensive for a stock replacement. Try Rockauto or autopartswarehouse. I also don't care for cheap clutches. Just pay a little more(or less) and buy an aftermarket upgrade heavy duty street or stage1 type upgrade. Clutchmasters(Fx100), ACT(street), Centerforce(1 or dualfriction), Exedy, Clutchnet, Unorthodoxracing are some to consider.

Yes they are great. I have never had any problems in my last FIVE fc's and soon to be 6. For turbo applications I recommend the 6 puck spring loaded.

If the motor was a stock NA, I'd say go for it. Since its modded, its your $100 to burn and several hours of labor.

IMO, you get what you pay for, and I'd wager that it won't last long!

You might try pricing your Mazda dealer. Mazda begin offering "Mazda Value" products to compete with aftermarket. The clutch kits are made by Exedy and include the Pressure Plate, Disc, TOB and alignment tool.
