Default New clutch decision

I need to buy a new clutch kit tomorrow, but right now im stuck between Exedy and ACT. Prostreetonline has a great sale on them so unless i can find a better deal eslewhere then thats where im getting it from. The reason why i am stuck is because im not sure what kind of quality is gonna fit me. I mean right now im used to my stock clutch and felt that for what it was, it did the job fairly good. I know that Exedy makes the stock clutchs for honda/acuras. I know ACTs are more aggressive, but at the same time i know going with the ACT means that im going to have to get use to driving the car again cause of the stiffness of the pedal, and being that im used to stock clutchs, its goinna be a pain. So basically would an Exedy organic stage 1 be a good upgrade from stock or am i better off tuffing it out and getting a 6 or 4 puck ACT. I dont plan on boosting or anything, if i wil probally get a lightened flywheel to wrap it up.

i havent had any personal experience with the exedy organic stage one but have heard that its a great clutch. from what ive heard the clutch may be a very slight bit stiffer but the engagement is great and feels stock. you dont want to go with a 4 or 6 puck with what your running(you didnt mention any heavy mods or plans for this to be a strip only car). those are generally pretty heavy duty clutches and engagement is far from smooth, not a good daily driver. id go with the exedy, probably more than enough clutch for what you need. im planning on getting a clutch soon as well and the exedy organic is what itll be. hope i helped

your right man, im not planning anything more than cams and a little head work so i guess i dont need nothing that serious. Like i said before, the stock clutch did good enough for me to runn 14.6s of just I/H/E. So Exedy it will be, im even happier that im gonna to save some money that will go to the flywheel. What kind of flywheel should i get for the GSR?
