Default Which Clutch and Flywheel?

To make the story short I have94 Hatch and I am puttinf in the B18c5 I ordered Y21 tranny and Civic Type R LSD with the final drive, since everything is apart might as well put in new clutch and flywheel. Yes I searched, my question is which companies are good? I heared that excedy is crap and ACT is good and vice versa, which lightened flywheel? Which company? Got any stores? Thanks!

I have ACT HDD and StreetLite in my JDM B16A. I really like the setup. Kinda rough for city driving, but I don't mind it much.

I have Clutchmaster stage 3 plus their Lightweight flywheel.. Excellent for everyday driving, feels like stock until you pop the clutch, that thing grabs. I an scared to go else where because of the drivability of this clutch, but I'm planning on going excedy. This is the king.. Reason i'm switching is because the cluchmaster clutches are weak, can't take a beating. My first one snaped in half.

Well from my driving experience I choose the exedy clutch kit and ACT fly wheel. IMO the ACT and Exedy clutch kits are about the same but you can get the Exedy for alot cheaper. And after 2,000 miles of beat on it, still fells like it was new after the break in period.

Not enought info guys!!!!
So what about this set up :
1. Exedy Stage 1
2. Fidanza flightwheel.

It is a daily driver driver so stage 2 would be two much , Pros cons??? Buddy of mine said Exedy sucks, does it?

I would highly recommend the act street disc with the extreme pressure plate. I daily drove on this clutch for 2 years all motor and now turboed and still running the same clutch and making around 350whp. I'm waitin for the clutch to give before I upgrade , but the damn thing still grabs til this day. I'm also running a lsd tranny and the clutch helped pull low 1.8 60's all day
