Default Cultch & Flywheel advice

Alright guys, looks like it might be time for a clutch on the Z.

Ever since I bought the car the clutch has let out high. This weekend I made a few runs at the 1/8 mile track. The first run I bogged launching at too low of RPM not expect this NT-01's to grip as well as they did. On the second run I launched higher and it was the clutch not the tires that slipped (still my fastest run of the night with an 8.2 @ 90.6). Unsure it was clutch I made one more run. This time the clutch seemed ok with the tires breaking loose (think the guy before me left some water on the track). On the drive home it hooked up fine, but now I really don't trust it.

So, what's the hot ticket these days for the budget minded performance enthusiast? My car is putting down ~380rwhp and sees a lot of racing, so I want to make sure and get something that will take the abuse (and maybe even more power one day =)

Also, who has the best deal on AL flywheels? Reading a little bit, I want to make sure and get a clutch with a sprung disc. But, what do I need to do about balancing? Should I take it to the machine shop and have them match the balance to the stock dual mass?

THANKS!
Jordan
