Clutch Issue?
ACT or CLUTCHMASTERS, also a cheaper solution if you havent done this already would be to go with the 2+2 or turbo flywheel and 240mm clutch disc and pressure plate. much more area for gripping and the turbo clutches seem to have a lot more clamping force.

? Centerforce 1 or OEM Clutch? Which to Use?
then my choice would NOT BE CENTERFORCE. ive heard and seen to many horror stories from them. ie not holding up to pressure, not holding together, exploding clutch discs and the like. not that this is always true and has always happened but it has happened and in more then enough instances that you couldnt give me a CF clutch. if you dont want to go OEM, then i would choose something better imo, which is ACT or CLUTCHMASTERS, and or EXEDY's new DAIKIN line.:classic: my advice stay away from CF, they really arent all that!

Engine Rebuild Advice/Info
just hook a battery up to it and crank that som bitch with the starter. it will work and you will be able to get your compression readings. from there you will exactly know where you stand. if you do or are going to be doing a rebuild irregaurdless, i would most definetly use nissan crank and rod bearings, have the block and the head cleaned and decked for good mating surfaces. have the valves and seats done. there is just so many things but you can go from there. its more of what you want out of the engine and what you want YOUR car to do. others im sure will chime in as you add more information

What brand of tools do you use?
MAC and KOBALT. i found kobalt tools to be of equal if not better quality then mac in most instances. that is till this year when they changed there line and now you couldnt pay me to buy a set. its a shame to see a quality tool go to crap like this set did.

4-speed to 5-speed
if you have a 72, if you do have a 70 or 71 what you could do and what i did was modify the shifter instead of cutting into my rust free Z:finger: to me thats the only acceptable thing to do:love:

Turbo vs Stroker? whats better?
and im a little biased but i would have to say that you would need to go turbo for the hp that you want and there is nothing wrng with the P90a head. my 280ZXT has one with 177k on the clock running 15# of boost and is still going strong:) and on the 7th day god created booooost!
