Ok I search and even Google but cant find the answer im looking for..

Just got my s14, but the clutch is out/BAD. So im looking for a new clutch kit, but my pocket is low (since I just got the car). I will keep the car stock NA, no future plans on motor. Usually daily driven, occasional fun time :] from my research, I have finalized it down to a few kits.. (im staying away from F1 & XTD) so here are my options, now give me your opinions :]

Right now im leaning towards this one.. http://www.frsport.com/Exedy-O....html

This is the "same" kit only cheaper on ebay, but not sure if its "trust-able" to buy from ebay.. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...80293

and then there's Autozone clutch kits.. with that LLT stuff.. autozone got a few brands like LUK ($180) and DURALAST($99).. I have heard of a few member who use autozone, but is it worth it or should I go Exedy OEM?

Thanks,Jace

I Would Just Go With The Exedy Ebay One.

Feedback Is Good Enough For Me Not To Worry About It.

I have the Luk RepSet on my car. Ran me about $150 from a specialty place. Its a good clutch, I don't have crazy power or anything, just a stock KA. They have a good history with good feedback and reviews. I haven't had a problem with it either.

I Was Wondering If I Could Find A Cheaper Exedy OEM Kit.Cheapest I Found Was Amazon At Like $100.

Probably Go With This Too.

I got the OEM Exedy from this seller last year, no issues and fast shipping. Though I just now got it put on my Vert and its not back on the ground yet, so no review of it. I would assume its near stock feel, though I've hardly ever had a stock clutch.
