I just ordered an Exedy Organic from Clutch City Online. If you can hold off, I can tell you how it is in about a week. It's on special for $249 right now.

I went with the OEM ITR disk/pp.
It all depends on what level of tune you are at.
I weighed my options and that was the solution that presented itself at the time. It was an improvment over my 53,000 mile stock unit.

My disk had plenty of life left but the release bearing was gone.
Previous owner gripe # 127
Shift into neutral at prolonged stops, the clutch is not a footrest!

Re: Exedy
Exedy makes Honda's clutches anyway don't they? I think I remember something on honda-acura.net about them making either Honda's clutches, Spoon/Toda, both, maybe? yes/no? Not trying to say it's for sure, I'm tossing it up for discussion because i, too, will one day be in this position.

ACT is nice ..but stay way from CrapMasters...just from my encounters with there stages 2~4 all of them went to hell after 700 miles 
oh and iv used before the act stage 3 (which i hated) i screwed it up in less than 1000 miles (didnt break it in... hence y i was so pissed i needed a new clutch!)
and iv used a cm stage 4 which i loved... had it in till i sold the car...
now im going with an os giken twin disc clutch

Re: What good clutches u all use?
I'm loving my Clutch Specialties Stage 2. It's an 1800# plate with a copper impregnated disk w/ 6 spring hub. Similar to an ACT TX/SS but it engages much smoother. My old ACT XT/SS had a lot of chatter and very small friction point.
Got it for $315 w/ throw out, pilot and alignment tool.

Re: What good clutches u all use? (RiceCarDriver)
Does anyone use the clutchnet clutch that importparts sells? I was wondering if those are any good, and I'm surpised no one says they have it since, it's like coming with the kit he's selling (damn i wish I had enough money for that sale)
