gripforce clutch? is it POS?

hi
I need a new clutch and i don't want to spend $350 on an OEM clutch from the dealership. Now while I was looking for good deals on the exedy stage 1 oraganic clutch and i stumbled across "gripforce". on their website they sell both gripforce and exedy products.
Gripforce website
does anyone know if they're any good?
thanks in advance

I would recommend Exedy over them. Exedy is an OEM supplier, and their quality is very good. For a stock replacement the Stage 1 is hard to beat.

im not sure what your price range is buti have the clutchmasters 6-puck and let me tell you this mother grabs like no other! if you plan on boosting, nitrous, a swap or any significant power increase i suggest you grap this. the only after market product i have on my car is the clutch and dc sports tcs2 catback exhaust and i chirp in 3rd. its sick. its kinda hard to drive at first and is nothing like the oem, but within a few days you get it down and it drives better then stock, just my honest .02 c

lol yeah 6-puck clutches are fun to drive and make your left leg buff, but that's not what i'm looking for since i'm planning on getting rid of this car at least by the end of summer. So I just need a clutch that isn't $350 (i guess the lower the better), and that feels just a little more solid than stock (i've never liked how this clutch felt).
