Blown Out Clutch throw-out bearing, want new clutch and flywheel

Hey guys, yes... today when I started it in the morning it was fine, after 2 miles down the hill to my school, i realized there were a lot of smoke coming out of the rear deck and the clutch making a lot of noise. I park and saw huge amount of smoke coming out from the hole where the clutch is. I thought it was the clutch that I burnt out some how, but it wasn't, it was the throw out bearing, my music teacher who drives an NSX suggested that it was the throw out bearing, after school I brought it back down to my dad's auto mechanic shop and he told me that the throw out bearing has been worn out due to more then 20 years of not driving the car offen and not lubricated well.

So now I need to replace the throw out bearing, but while i'm at it, I would like to replace the stock parts to something better. I was thinking about aluminum flywheel? aftermarket clutch?

What are some suggestents out there and what type of results should I feel with new aftermarket parts? I'm all ears, but i'm not made out of money heh.

Best Regards,
Larry
