Interesting thread..

Not sure about drifting, but when it comes to power level, I would go with ACT. They can handle a lot of power/torque and can take more of a beating then Exedy Products.

Just my two cents.

Sprung 6 puck, anything stronger than that is no fun on the street and it's plenty strong for a stock -se

If it's completely stock and you just want a simple upgrade, then an Exedy Stage 1 Clutch Kit would work fine.

But if you plan on building your car, then get a more powerful clutch.

Then a stock clutch will do, or the stage 1 as previously mentioned.

No need to run anything but a stock or slightly upgraded clutch on an NA SE.
