i am torn between the 2 clutches i am only looking to make 300-350 hp and i dont want a clutch that will detonate crankwalk fast. so what should i get?
 
I would go with the 2100. I have this clutch on my '97 FWD and love it. It has great holding power, and in all reality you probably won't need/want the 2600. My main reason for going with this clutch is that it will hopefully not premote crankwalk, and there is a lot less stress on fwd vs. awd. Another thing is that I cannot tell the difference (pedal feel) from stock, my friend has 2600 in his 1g AWD and it is really noticeable vs. stock. Hope that helps.
 
Although the theory behind the bigger pressure plates promoting crankwalk makes sense, there are plenty of people that run the 2600 in their 2G that do not crankwalk. Likewise, there have been many 2G motors that crankwalk with the stock clutch. I have a 1G now, but when i had my 95GSX, i put 75,000 miles of hard driving on it with a 2600 lb. pressure plate, and when we tore it down, the crank play was within specs, and the bearings were not at all worn funny. Crankwalk is kind of a voodoo science, i think if it is going to happen it will, no matter what you do. Not that i am an expert on the subject, but that is what seems to happen. Anyway, if i were you i would man up and get the 2600, it will hold better and be more fun to drive.
 
cool cool thanks guys ill check round and let you know on my final decision.
