Come to find out, it looked like an OEM style clutch, with springs, but the weight and stiffness of it was probably because there was an aftermarket pressure plate on it.
We replaced the clutch with a nismo oem upgrade, slave cylinder, throwout bearing, along with my rear main seal, because it started to get a pindrop leak.
In the process of breaking it in now, got about 100 stop and go city miles on it, and the pedal feels SO soft compared to the previous one. Like, I thought I was going to have to bleed the slave cylinder because of how easy it was to push down.
For some reason, the rpms still drop and go up while the car is in neutral on a cold start depending on whether I have the clutch in or out, but the car shifts SO much smoother, and even when switching gears, I don't get the resistance from the shifter like I did before.
