So the original clutch is finally starting to give out on the car,

and i was quoted by the mechanic $1000 to put a new clutch in it.

I'm pretty clueless about clutches and he was talking about putting a ceramic clutch in it?

After i did some research apparently ceramic clutches are a pain for daily driving?

But anyway it would be appreciated if someone could point me in the right direction

The cars a 95 r33.

Just put a standard clutch in if the car is standard, and going by the fact you are posting in the NA section I'm assuming the car is pretty basic

therefore as above, standard NA clutch or if you want a little more bite a standard turbo clucth

Im used to driving with a incredibly hard clutch right now, to the point where your leg hurts after awhile.

Will a stock clutch handle a bit of punishing? been dropped etc etc

Other then that i was looking at a cushion button clutch?

Cushion button will probably blow your gearbox.

if your car is std NA then definitely wont need anything special thats for sure...

this. NA skylines aren't really powerful and with mods they aren't going to be that much above stock power. certainly not high enough to need a heavy duty clutch unless you are the type to regularly dump the clutch to chirp the wheels (about all a NA skyline is capable of, LOL). in which case what you should buy is a push bike and hand your licence in. or buy a commodore so you give them a bad image instead of damaging the already poor image imports have

    • Welllll..... some of the Preludes, particularly this one Sort of kinda mimicked the long-nose-short-deck-Mustang/Skyline profile anyway. That one ^ kinda like R34. The other more curvy Prelude kinda like the R33. Integras had a little of that going on also. So, it's not totally surprising to me that their designers have gravitated to a similar profile to more "modern" (ha! 20 year old!!) Nissan coupes. Of course, they could have just stolen the V/Z platform anyway, per your suggestion. I am, otherwise, similarly unimpressed. Those venty things at the bottom of the front guard/door reek of Tiburon, which is not a place any designer would want to be.
    • I’m an automotive photographer based in Sydney, but just dropping this here in case anyone else from NSW is looking. I’ve been photographing cars for more than 10 years, working with private owners, collectors, dealerships, and brands. You can check out my work here: carphotographers.com.au Would definitely recommend finding someone local in Melbourne who understands how to shoot Skylines properly — the angles and light really make a difference. If you ever drive up this way, happy to shoot it for you.
    • Looks like the brief relationship between Honda and Nissan resulted in Honda stealing the Z profile designs.  I'm not a fan at all. 👎🏻   https://www.autoblog.com/news/seeing-the-new-honda-prelude-up-close-reveals-its-retro-magic

    • Yeah, it was a pretty deep dig.
