Although I don't have a 7M I personally would go get a twin plate clutch if I were you...
you could get a ceramic puck clutch if you're on a budget but they are not too good for street driving
Daiken / Exidy make some damned good clutches... give our mates at Pittwater Brake & Clutch a call for a good deal

Do a search (not being an arsehole) as someone has talked about thier own experiences of sourcing a clutch (it was 7mgte -> w58 so I'm not sure if it will help you at all...)
found it for you...here

Get a twin plate if you have lots of money and like throwing it around. For the more budget-conscious among us, a ceramic puck clutch is 90% as good for a tenth of the price.
Contrary to popular belief, a ceramic clutch can be perfectly streetable, depending on how it's built. For example, a 3-puck solid-centre clutch with huge clamp pressure is going to be a real bitch to drive; I've tried one and I didn't like it at all. On the other hand, a 5-puck sprung-centre clutch with reasonably clamp pressure (which is what I have in my Supra) is very easy to live with and not very different to a normal organic clutch.
Having said that, twin plate clutches are pretty nice. Just make sure you're sitting down when you enquire about prices!
