Not many people have swapped out their clutches unless they have a turbo. I know ACT, Exedy and Centerforce make clutches for our car. I have no personal experience with any of them except that my boy has a ACT clutch (not sure if it is in or not though).

i LOVE my new ACT.. i got the 6-puck with heavy duty pressure plate, and the 11lb flywheel (going turbo,, WHOOOO_HOO).... but for most people, 6-puck is too much, you kinda need to be used to driving a big clutch (i had a 4-puck on my 13 sec. 5th gen)... due to the fact that a clutch like this grabs VERY harshly, so if you ncant drive it your tranny goes booom....LOL... but they do make a VERY nice stage 1... go for that man... its PLENTY of holding power for you...

djmota is just really nicedjmota is just really nicedjmota is just really nicedjmota is just really nice
stage one is what i'm am going to go with once my stock clutch is dead. along with a lighter wieght flywheel.
i'm kinda scared that a harsh clutch wil tend to break motor/trans mounts. and since there are no aftermarket ones out there it would mean trouble.
