Default Buying the right clutch for the situation

I'm ordering a clutch kit from http://www.clutchcityonline.com (honda-tech sponsor) and I'm really torn between two different kits. Replacing a clutch isn't something I want to have to do again down the road so I'm trying to plan out my next move. After I get my B16 in I plan on buying I plan on doing valve train work first but on the side over the next year work on a trashed B16 block. Get it machined and go for CTR pistons, an overall good n/a engine with hopes of breaking 200hp. Should I get the Exedy Standard clutch or the Exedy Racing Organic clutch?

i cannot vote yet as i am still a trial user, but my vote says to get the Organic racing clutch, i have it in my 2000 Si and its awsome, it comes with a lil bit heavier feel then stock but it wont make your ankle sore , the stock replacement is like a stock clutch since exedy makes our OEM ones anyways, ull just wear it out faster probably, the organic is nice clutch, ive had mine for a month now, and so far no complaints

Same here, I have the organic. The only problem I have is a noise. I think its the release bearing and I have to adjust the pedal rod. Other than that. its a good choice.

yea i have a noise too, but i was told the noise is normal with aftermarket clutches, is this true or is this due the the people who installed it. this noise, sounds like a spinning sound right?

STOCK ITR PRESSURE PLATE AND BEARING @150
EXEDY OR ACTION KEVLAR DISK @200
EXEDY OR COMPTECH LIGHTWEIGHT FLYWHEEL @400
$750

= fast revup with decent chatter and drivablity,
the ability to slip it off the line, great for match revving
and high RPM engagement...

dont futz with a crazy pressure plate... do yourself, your
thrust washers, axles and diff a favor
