Clutch with a good rep recommendations

I searched for a while at work for threads about aftermarket clutches in high HP set-up, but all I found was people asking about OEM replacements.

I'm looking for a good, trustworthy clutch that will handle ~500whp. This car will be street driven, with occasional road course track time. I want something that will stand up to the abuse and heat on the track, but not break my leg on the street.

Any recommendations?

My buddy had the comp clutch stage4 clutch/flywheel kit on his tt g. Said it was grabby as usual but easy to adjust to after break-in.

Can't speak from personal, but anyone that is built really, it seems they end up migrating over to at least a twin plate clutch. For ease of driving, torque holding, and pedal feel that seems to be what is favored. Most of this I've seen has been over on my350z

I'm gonna dig up a few options and post em in here and see what you guys think. I need to make out a parts list for the shop so when I'm deployed they know what to order up.

OS Giken twin disc - they have a new version available which is supposed to greatly reduce the chatter associated with twin plates. GT2CD - grand touring. Sounds like you are looking to do exactly the same as me and this clutch seemed like the perfect fit when I found it.

I'll have some feedback for you soon. CIN is getting closer and closer...
