Ive got the exedy stage 2 with a fidanza flywheel. with the stock turbo at 13 psi + 75 shot nitrous on drag radials it has stood up to 20 plus passes at the track and driving 70 miles per day to work and back dumping third gear countless times. It has perfect pedal pressure, slightly high engagement and makes some funny noises on occasion esp. when cold. Its a great clutch that i would recommend to anyone.

I have ACT stage 3 6 pucks right now and i think it's perfect for daily and track. Warning: it can be really hard to daily if you never driven a stage 3 before. Otherwise it's good.

i have the stage 2 thick for my sr. thick is for street and track use and thin is for track use only. so it all depends on what your using your car for.

as far as daily driving, which lasts the longest? i'm looking at some of the clutch kits on phase2 and i see

- ACT heavy street/strip
- ACT heavy duty 6-puck
- Clutch Master stage 1
- Exedy stage 1
- RPS sport

other than previously mentioned clutches in the before postings, anyone deal with any of these on a daily driving basis?

illegal garage...I have them in my s13 and 86 and they work great. they have a stock pedal feel but grabs pretty agressive. ive had it in my s13 for almost 2 yrs and it still feels good!

I have an Exedy stage 1... I really like it. It can take quite a bit of abuse; and it's really good for daily driving. My buddy says the same thing about his stage 2. I've never known anyone who didn't like their exedy clutch actually.

i have an Exedy stage 2 with the thick disk. i love it. it engages quite a bit harder than the oem clutch, but its by no means to harsh for daily driving.

for the thin one i think there is a b added to the part #,

i got the exedy stage 2, nice stock pedal pressure feel, engagement is a little rough

my bro has ACT street/strip forgot the part#, its the one that can handle 400+ ft-lbs of torque

pedal pressure is ridiculous, you're gonna have a he-man sized left quad, but it
has a stock feel engagement

if you got the cash and want a lighter flywheel, i love my blitz single plate clutch and 15 lb flywheel. (made by ORC) its the best you can get but gotta pay to play if you know what I mean. You could get a Blitz double plate if your pushing high HP or doing a lot of clutch kicking. BTW my pedal feel is about 20% firmer than stock. Barely noticable.

i have the exedy 3 puck, and its amazing. it was no harder to drive in traffic than a stock clutch. much much much more friendly than the 6 puck my buddy has. i really like it and would recommend it any day of the week.
