The right clutch for me

Im in a IX GSR.

Im currently pushing a mild 320awhp aiming at no higher than 450awhp.

My clutch is finally going out which is to be excepted it as from the documentation I can see its never been replaced and the car has 130k approximately.

I want a clutch thats quit, reasonbly priced and will be easy to drive like oem.

My thoughts is that a disk base oem style upgrade is better.

Thats what im thinking. I've had a spec stage 2 plus in a v6 4g eclipse and I absolutely loved it. Thoughts?

I just put in an Exedy 05952HD Stage 2 Cerametallic with Exedy flywheel and added the ACT Monoloc to round out the deal in my 2005. Not as smooth as a stock clutch since it is a metallic material, but hold plenty of extra power and is easy to drive once you relearn and get past the fact your old clutch was that bad . To date it is my favorite clutch since I know I can make more power to a point (500-600 at the wheels without issue) and still have plenty of clutch to work with. If you are going to be in a lot of traffic, then you may want something like you mentioned as it will be stock type smooth, but if not--- it is another choice. For me, I have never had the best of luck with the kevlar type surfaced clutches.
