Default clutchplace.com?? star? spoon?

I've searched for months on info here for my next replacement clutch and would love some feedback as i still can't seem to find a solid answer. So here's a few questions for those of you who have tossed the OE clutch and gone for something else:



My car is a 2-3 mile a day around town driver on weekdays and a canyon/track car on weekends. What puck setups should i consider?

Good or bad luck w/any of the following:

Star?

clutchplace.com?

Centerforce?

ACT?

Spoon?

Any other brand?

Thanks in advance

After an embarrassing AutoX session noted by LOTS OF Noise, LOTS of throttle, LOTS of Stink, and not a lot of forward movement, I decided to upgrade to the spoon (with flywheel as well). I got a deal on the install as the dealer put them in during the 1-2grind TSB

Anywho - I like it (pretty qualitative, but hell, it works!) - If I'm shifting VERY fast and agressively, I sometimes hear a metal "chirp" coming from underneath, but no slippage. YMMV, especially if you decide to stuff more HP under the hood.

No complaints here

ACT. the ACT KIT uses the OEM clutch disk and a re-worked OEM pressure plate. I love it and it works awesome.

bumpity

from the research i've done, it sounds like star is the best bang for the buck and spoon/exedy to be the top dolla choices.

Anyone have comparative expereince wiht Star vs Spoon or Exedy?
