Default Clutch replacement in '90 Integra

Also posted in Tech, sorry.

I have an integra that is a weekend autocrosser and will eventually be an IT (or Honda Challenge if it ever makes it out here) race car. It's unlikely that my car will ever make more than ~200 hp max. My clutch is starting to go and I'd like to replace it with something a little more aggressive, but obviously I don't need huge torque capacity. I'm also a big fan of value (ie. I'm cheap). Which material and brand should I be looking at?

Thanks

I don't autocross so I don't know what your requirements are...

For road racing I find the stock clutch to be more than enough. (BTW - wee don't do any standing starts and I've never experienced sliping while on the track...)

I would stay away from organic on a roadrace car.

Well, if stock is going to work that's good news. My current stock one is at 174k kms so if I didn't have to replace it for another 12 years that would be cool. I'm trying to find a price on stock clutches though, are they much cheaper than aftermarket ones?

Thanks for the responses, btw, keep 'em coming.
