Default Need a new clutch

Where from, how much, should I get an after market one?

Gearbox is to be swapped so might as well get the clutch done too.

I bought a lightweight flywheel, heavy duty pressure plate and organic clutch plate made by ACT. Well overspec for a standard car in some ways, but it's nice to break the back end loose in the dry every now and then. Car took a little while to get used to (ie stalling it every other time from a standstill) but it's all bedded in nicely now and I've got used to it, so no more kangarooing or sh*tting myself every time I needed to do a hill start

Tango, there is an OEM / Excedy clutch on Ebay atm. I don't know what they are from Honda, but seems well priced.

Didn't you just have a new gearbox? I remember reading your thread when mine went.
