Default Exedy clutch kit, any good?

I need a new clutch for 2005 sti, found an Exedy clutch kit 04-07 6spd for sti. I have never heard of this brand of clutch. Will this be a good clutch for my sti that is a daily driver?

Easy to engage and hold power just fine. There's quite a few people that run them as well as myself.

Yes, in fact it might be the exact same clutch that came in your STi from the factory. If I remember correctly, the stock clutch is actually made by Exedy.

Yes, the stock clutch in the 6 speed is made by Exedy for Subaru.

OP are you looking at the Exedy OEM replacement kit, or the Stage 1 Exedy organic.
