Replacing the Clutch...OEM vs ACT?!?

Have any of you had any experience w/ this?

I'd rather not go with OEM bc I've had problems w/ that before...an ACT clutch assembly is actually cheaper. What do ya'll suggest. Any other brands?

Its just a daily driver. I dont need it for racing...but I am more of an aggressive driver though.

What about resale value. I know this change should hurt it at all...just curious who has had any experience with this change...

Thanks.

I've hear good things about the exedy clutch for daily drivers. May want to look into that.

Dezod....which clutch kit do you suggest? As far as durability/performance/value.

I would recommend the Exedy Organic Stage1 clutch, I hear good things about them. That's what I'll go for when I need a new clutch.
