I think you would be more happy with a ACT over any of them.

I'm going to be buying a clutch soon too. Why ACT, because I've been hearing tons of bad stuff about it. I've had ACT clutches in other cars before, but it seems that there is something wrong with the ACT Evo clutches.

Can someone chime in and shine some light?

I'm in the same boat as you. Everyone keeps telling me to get the Exedy HD but damn, you're talking nearly 2 grand to buy and install that!! Plus I honestly don't think I'd ever "need" a clutch like that as I dont drag race, and I dont ever see myself going past a 30R at the most

I mean some people dont like the chatter and such, or they dont like the feel of the pedal, it does require more of a push than the stock thats for sure, but if your not drag racing i would say just get the exedy single disc ceramatallic then, but i know that on my exedy stage 1 organic drag racing DESTROYED that clutch in no time but the twin disc i have now seems to be doing the job pretty good

forgot to add, I'm starting to lean heavily towards the Fidanza 4.3! I was reading on PTT's webpage that when selecting a clutch for an AWD application, take your torque (or your projected torque when mods are done) and multiply by 1.5 to get the holding capacity you need. I'm shooting for around 400 ft lbs, which comes out to right about 600 ft lbs, and the 4.3 is rated at 599

X2!!!!!
my act clutch was junk, the outer disk hub and the hub springs were rubbing on the pressure plate. Basically the clutch would never release 100%. Thats why my 2nd 4th and 5th syncros are now ****ed.
