What are you looking for? What do you want the clutch to do for you? If you don't know, just stay with OEM.

Why not just buy a reputable brand stage 1 or 2 clutch?

get a rps clutch or exedy or something like that. I personally don't think ACT is that good but I guess that's an option too.

i have a white bunny setup in my missile car. runs a kat, gets the shit kicked out of it.

autozone $180 with lifetime warranty.

95 nissan pickup, 4 cyl, 5spd manual. clutch and flywheel, they have it in stock at my local store. ive put them in a few cars now.

again, lifetime warranty. buy it once, get it replaced for free forever.

Not sure how fast your KA is, but on a low-power motor the added surface area most likely does not give any benefit, so all you are doing is adding extra rotating mass, which will only make the KA feel even slower than it already is.
If you are doing it because you are poor, then you are better off just having your flywheel resurfaced and buying a new OEM-replacement clutch. If you are looking for performance, buy a grippy clutch and a lightweight flywheel.

White bunny works great, affordable, and as effective as a Stage 1 type replacement.

A buddy of mine has a six puck on his Ka-t. Gets kicked to shit non stop and is a very street able clutch. After driving his car my next clutch will be a white bunny

ACT Clutches are actually made by Exedy, rebadged and sold by a different company.

Of course it works and is affordable, but someone should weigh a stock clutch/flywheel vs. the 'White Bunny' setup.

It's always funny to learn how 'few' clutch companies they really are, and yet some guys get so heated/brand hard over them, and not others built in the same factory

Autozone (duralast) shit sucks balls. Take that crap out before it grenades and leaves you stranded. It's happened to a buddy of mine, and others on the forums. Brand new clutch, KABOOM, no more clutch...
