Default Im looking for a street clutch, what is my best choice?

I have a 1995 SC300. At the moment its bone stock, but the clutch will be needing replacement soon. As for performance mods, I plan on upgrading to filter and exhaust and thats about it. Nothing crazy, just a daily driver basically. What clutch do you guys recommend? I did a search and found a lot of stuff about turbo and high HP applications, but didnt really find much information on street clutches. Im looking for something that has more holding power than stock, but that will not sacrifice my driveability. Some friends were saying I should get an ACT street clutch, but I had a street disc and a 6 puck sprung hub in my turbo MR2 and I did not like either one bit. I know the SC and MR2 are totally different cars, but ACT just left a bad taste in my mouth. Any suggestions?

I am pretty sure that supra clutches are compatable with the sc300s.

Here are some good clutches for a supra.

i have the centerforce stage ii clutch in my car. it doesn't have any problems grabbing my toyo tires and lighting them up. Drives just like stock. Chatters a bit not much though. Haven't tried any other clutches but this one is decent.

The centerforce dual friction's are very nice. I've run them in the past.
