Question driveterrain (clutch / pressure plate)

I kknow making power from a manual car is in de pressure plate & type of clutch you use.
My question is, can I replacee my old stock clutch & use a performance clutch & leave the stock pressure plate? Would the stock pressure plate clamp load would be enough for a act 4/6 puck or full surface clutch
This is for the '03 1.5 yaris/vÍtz RS

if youre going to the trouble of replacing the disc, you might as well do the pressure plate

that said, an oem clutch will absorb tons of abuse as long as you're not turbo'd or supercharged

make sure you resurface your stock PP if you keep it. Watch out on those 4/6 puck deals...they are serious when it comes to leg fatigue.
