Default Which OEM clutch?

I need to replace the clutch in my LS. I need to stay with a OEM grade clutch because of my autocross class. I have read good things about the OEM Exedy kit (KHC05) but, also ran accross the Competition Clutch OEM kit. Does anyone have any experience with the Competition Clutch kit as a comparison to the Exedy kit?

Never owned a CC OEM clutch but I have owned an Exedy OEM clutch for almost 5 years now. I beat the crap out of it as well as daily driving.

My Exedy has lasted longer than the stock clutch and engagement is very good. The pedal feel is kind of soft, though.

Exedy actually makes most factory clutches, not sure about Honda, but a lot of cars use Exedy from the factory.

exedy or fuji carbon, the exedy is half the price. only difference between the two is the fuji has a slightly stronger pressure plate which you'll feel in the pedal.

for a stock ls, get the exedy oem. the clutch disc is what you're going to trash doing autocross. if it's legal the stage 1 would be ideal since it has a reinforced disc and much stronger pressure plate

The cheapest price for a Exedy OEM kit that I can find is $114 shipped on eBay. Does anyone know if I can get it cheaper somewhere else?

if that's from gripforce that's as cheap as you're likely to get, could always check amazon but gripforce is a wonderful seller
