The alloy flywheels can be upgraded by having or installing ARP hardened steel 
inserts into the flywheel attaching holes which alieviates the tendancy for the 
holes to elongate.

Most folks seem to do a Fidanza aluminum flywheel.  Joe had a set of steel ones 
similar to what's sold by Cambridge made a while back, weighs the same and 
doesn't have the tendency to come loose from the crank like the alloy ones do.  
Looks like this but for a TR4:

I use a diaphragm pressure plate like you describe with a heavy duty clutch 
disk.

The annular hydraulic throwout bearing is cool, but if you have any kind of 
failure you have to pull the tranny.  For that reason I converted from a very 
cool setup like that back to stock - so if the slave cylinder went out I had 
half a chance of fixing it at the track.
