There is no such thing as an Ebay clutch. There are clutches of various manufacturers sold on Ebay, that's it. Since you failed to mention a name, give a link, or provide any useful information, no one can help you.

I'm using a XTD stage 3 6 puck for my SR.

Could be the throw-out-bearing, but my car gets stuck in gear and I can't put it in gear. This clutch / bearing are only a few months old.

You are probably better off getting the clutch "rebuilt" by a local shop than trying to use a cheap ebay clutch. Its probably going to be cheaper too.

^^i think that said it all. stock clutches are about $150 at like autozone i believe. also have you looked into SBC clutches. I have one of theirs and couldnt be happier. in the car for close to a year and not a single problem. Running 12psi at about 300whp and not a single slip yet. i also have one of their 6 puck setups to hold 720ft tq but havent used that one yet.

There is a company on ebay that is selling the oem nissan clutch kit that comes with the throwout bearing, pilot bushing, pressure plate, and clutch disc. IIRC the price was reasonable too.

A stock nissan hardbody flywheel and a cheap 300zx stock replacment clutch should hold on.. lots of people having good luck on this setup.. gives more clutch surface area since the hardbody flywheels are 240mm.... Its called a white bunny special

If you are swapping out in 3 months then just buy an OEM replacement cheapo and lay the fuck off the bottle. LOL.

I have the same problem with mine, clutch also sometimes gets stuck half engaged but that's only if I dump it from high revs right after I turn the car on. (I like to abuse my car.)
