Exclamation Help with choosing a clutch!

I wanted to replace my clutch, was thinking of just replacing it with an OEM clutch, something that wont cost too much and will be as easy to drive like my current oem one... any suggestions as far as what clutch you recommend for daily driving?

Sorry I cant help you out too much with any brands, but i do not recommend a clutch that causes the pedal to have a lot of tension. My foot actually goes numb sometimes when i drive in congested traffic. I am not sure if the tension is adjustable.

The Exedy Stg.1 organic clutch is slightly stronger than stock and Exedy makes the stock one. It's what I have. I dig it. Clutch feel is the same as stock.

Bottom line... a clutch is gonna be expensive to do. I'm actually about due again. sucks.

Everything is hitting me right now. All my pulleys, timing belt, wheel bearing sounds like it's going. My AC just crapped out. My clutch is slipping. Need new tires. Need new diff and tranny fluid. Oh.. and brakes.

Frickin killing me.

Thanks to LIC they just hooked me up with a RPS max clutch today, but I think it depends on what your power level is at. If your not planning on going big then just stick with stock components

I've been installing Exedy clutches for years without any complaints.
FUN FACT: A lot of aftermarket/performance clutch kits use Exedy components.
