I know a friend who bought a exedy one. Its good quality and people seem to like them. Exedy
Ive seen the XTD ones, but they seem like knock off ones... they sound almost the same XTD/Exedy... dunno.

i'd either get an exedy or an autozone clutch. offbrand **** on ebay always turns into problems.

I bought an OEM replacement exedy clutch kit for about $100 from a business on ebay, they sell lots of them. Its been great so far, Ive got about 2000 miles on it and ites held up really well.

JUST BE WARNED... you get the same quality with the price that you pay for... i dont really go to ebay with Vital parts with my cars... i usually want warranty on them... but if its something like a accessory i would use ebay...

I installed the exedy one off ebay this past weekend when I did my shortblock swap, grabs nice and for only 120 shipped you can't beat it. Parts stores want 180+ for the same kit. Buy from aimcoclutch, he's who sold me mine. The guy didn't provide any tracking info, but he did ship it the same day

If you go to http://www.autozone.com you can see all the different prices. I got an ls in my hatch and the clutch only cost me like 60 or 70 bucks haha i just like it cause its cheap.

I can get you an ACT clutch disc for $61, is that not cheap ? And the brand is one of the best out there. Nothing to worry about.

I got an XTD stage 1 clutch from aimco I belive and it seems to be pretty nice for the price. It's manufactured by Daikin, which is one of the main, if not the main Japanese clutch manufacturer, so it's a quality peice.

Put it on with my Zex 7 lb. flywheel and it feels incredibly nice. Although I have not had this clutch for very long, so take this for what it is... but yeah seems like a good deal to me.

All clutches crap out after a certain time.. depends how you treat em. Especially racing ones, they don't last as long as stock replacements.
