I've heard many good things about ACT since Exedy makes the disks for them.

However make sure the disk is sprung, other wise the pedal feel will be stiffer, un-sprung disks also have a slightly harder engagement, generally used in race applications.

Unless its a stock car....Do not buy an ebay clutch w/e you do.

the car had ACT clutch in it when i bought it. when i boosted it it didnt hold. but it was a great clutch not boosted. it held for a while so if i went with act i would have to get the next stage up from that. i will not buy a egay clutch!
