Default what clutch do you guys have?

im coming down to the final few weeks on my engine build, im hoping to have it all finished by July 4th

one of the last things on my list is a clutch, not sure what kind/stage etc i should buy.

b18c5 bottom end, b16a1 top end, ITR transmission w/LSD i dont plan any major power upgrades, just gonna get some ITR cams later this year and mayyyyyyyyybe but probably not, add a small nitrous shot (<50)

i just want something that will hold up over time and minimize drivetrain power loss as much as possible.

so, im interested in what clutches you guys use (on any set up whether it is similar to mine or not...)
any suggestions are appreciated

ACT heavy duty pressure plate with the street/strip disc. i love it, and it will be just about perfect for your car.

running act hd/ss on a 95 gs-R with streetlite flywheel, i/h/exhaust soon. As for the clutch I absolutely love it, catches quick and has great pedal feel, definite difference from stock clutch.
