Bad idea to pull a clutch from a car graveyard. You might as well get yours resurfaced or buy one. http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com/exedy/

buying a used clutch is like buying used motor oil... why would you do it?

B or D series? I can get a true exedy clutch with a flywheel to go with it for $150- plus shipping. Shipping would be a little expensive because of the weight (shipped via USPS, so not expensive because of location) -but it would be much better than throwing a used clutch on a unmatched flywheel. -from experience. This REAL exedy retails here in JDM land for about $600-

LMK. I can pick it up here in about 3 hours. Probably get it shipped by monday, depeneding on where you are in the states, you will have it next week.

For the price and convenience, Clutch specialties is definatly the way to go. You should definately check out the condition of your flywheel as well. If it's bad, you can get it resurfaced, or just get a Standard Flywheel, which is basically a lightened steel flywheel. Both are very very well priced and you can get them through LSD (link in sig).
