Exedy Twin hands down. Do it right the first time or do it twice. It also comes with a flywheel.

I just ordered one along with a new throw out bearing, STM clutch fork stop, and SS clutch lines.

If you get a multiplate clutch get a clutch fork stop to prevent it from popping out during hard shifting which could be a problem.

However, you are looking for a stockish clutch and do not plan on pushing it, I still suggest the Exedy Twin. More expensive, yes, but worth it. And in the future if you want to modify the car, which I am sure you will get sucked into lol, your clutch will be able to handle it and you will not have to do the job twice.

The Twin is really overkill for what he is looking to do. I would just stick with a single plate clutch for now. There are plenty that can handle even more power than you will put down if you start modding. Save your money and put it towards some other go fast parts. The stock clutch and types like it have been shown to hold decent power.

If you know you are going to start making serious power in the future, then go with the twin now. If you don't think you will need it or it will be a while before you build it, just go with a cheaper single for the time being.
