Question EDITED: my clutch is shot

so it finally happened. my clutch is almost gone. My rpm just shoots up after 4k rpm and my car goes no where. Anyone have a suggestion on where i should take to install my clutch and whats a good street clutch i should purchase?

thanks

need more advice. i looked up this on ebay its a clutch and flywheel combo theyre selling. It says its an OE replacement made by exedy is that like oem? can i get some feed backs if its legit then i think i might just go with this combo. F1 racing anygood? (thats the company that makes the flywheel)

anyways heres the link:

hmm thanks for the suggestions about the shops but theyre all a bit far and i really dont think my S could make it there. anyone know any shops local to me Diamond Bar CA 91765 that knows what theyre doing and are not trying to rip me off?

Thanks before hand for all the replies (:

P.S. 1 week not driving the S and im emotionally torn
