Need A New Clutch, Advice?, Swapping 3sgte and need a new clutch Options

[jcbass7]

Hey,

I just got a 3sgte to go into my black hatchback, but i need to buy a new clutch before i can swap. I only have until july 20th to conplete the swap and money is available but a little tight. I plan on running the stock gt tranny casually for a year and then upgrading. I basically need something that will be good enough to handle the 3sgte, but not a stage 3 kit or anything since i need to focus the money in getting the car operational first. Any advice?
could i use something like this?

or am i REALLY going to be pushing my luck by getting a cheap clutch?

Thanks guys.

PS: can i use the flywheel from the AWD tranny i got with the 3sgte?

I understand that i need peices from both, but i figured i could use the 3sgte flywheel, and pressure plate and then buy a clutch kit for a 5sfe tranny and use the parts i needed from there. I was going by your list above ^

5sfe disk
5sfe throwout bearing
5sfe alignment tool
3sgte pressure plate
3sgte flywheel


I wasn't sure if i needed to have a custom peice made. Thats what i wanted to avoid, since it would make life easier, but if i do then ill give spec a call and tell them my set-up.

Thanks for the help so far, and hopefully i won't act like a nooob too much during the entire swap process... of course this is mostly new to me
