OK so i'm gonna take my engine out and do the head gasket, ARC studs, Synchros on the tranny, couple of othewr things. I'm looking at a new clutch, I really liked the factory one, till i let my girlfriend drive my car and she took off in third... from 5000rpm... anyway since it's starting to feel old i thought i'd take the oportunity to upgrade it.
I'm looking at going to a 6puck sprung hub from either RPS or Unorthodox, but I'm a little concerned about how long they will last, i don't want to have to replace it after 5000 miles on the street.
If anyone has any opinions on clutch options, these companies, others i should look at, or has experience with these clutches can you let us know?

i just put a exedy stage 1 clutch and it feels pretty smooth but i dont know wat u use your car for though. Also in stead of replacing the synchros i just bought a used JDM trans for $300

new synchros are cheaper than a used tranny, despite the fact that i can get a '91 tranny with LSD for NZ$150 (bout USD$100) and i know my tranny isn't screwing up in other ways like popping out of gear or anything.
Question remains though what clutch?
