clutch advice please

[madmax]

Hi all
could I have some advice a to which of these clutches you would recommend.
For some reason the twin plate £1300 competition clutch that was fitted to my 385bhp less than a year ago by the previous owner has failed.
Looking at the combo deal of exedy oem and flywheel from Aztec
or standard clutch (or exedy racing ) and flywheel from Camskill.
I found some great looking deals on ebay from techniclutch including Exedy racing clutch and flywheel for £390 but reading google reviews I think I am best steering clear unless someone can tell me otherwise.
Thanks

At 385 a stock clutch should be fine providing your not launching the car! The Exedy OEM is a good option.

The twin plate failing sounds odd. What exactly has failed? Worn friction plates?

Steer clear of techniclutch !!!

Exedy organic will do just fine pal, got mine through a authorised exist dealer on eBay for £230

Thanks for the advice
I was advised by my mechanic that I might want to get the flywheel replaced aswell. Do you think it is worth getting a lightened one or just stick with stock.

As far as the twin plate going I am not sure why or exactly what is wrong with it but there is some serious slipping issues.
Do you reckon I could of caused premature wear by trying to actually pull away slowly most of the time and maybe riding the clutch a little. It is generally frowned on launching the car on the school run.

right getting really confused now. are there 2 types of exedy standard clutches.
Most seem to be mentioned as organic, but ready the posts by indigo gt across the road Ant seems to think that the organic ones are no good. Help need to get it ordered today and its one of the things that the more I find out the more confused I am getting

Thanks for the recommendation I like the look of them but I should have mentioned that I only have 500 to spend on clutch and flywheel maybe 600 if I make the kid eat beans on toast for the rest of the month.
Anybody got any more recommendations

Thanks for that I saw those, tried to call them 4 times yesterday and decided that they didn't want my money so order standard clutch and flywheel from indigo
