Clutch kit Exedy or VALEO
My go to is exedy stage 1 organic clutch kit. It can hold like 400 hp before it gives up and it's a good daily driving clutch. Also exedy is the oem for many cars the their oem labeled stuff is the same as \"Honda\" oem
Pros: good daily driving clutch
I got it and am loving it. feels great
Pros: feels great, loving it

I would suggest the Valeo HD kit which feels similar to stock, but holds a lot more power, and get the stainless clutch line added it. I have the BK1 3.8 and replaced mine with the Valeo HD kit and flywheel from the BK2 and I like it. My original clutch also lasted until 242k miles because I don't drive it like an idiot...and it was actually the slave cylinder that went out. The clutch disc had a good bit of life left in it.
Pros: similar to stock feel, holds more power
Vehicle:
Hyundai Genesis Coupe
Mileage: 242000 km
My slave cylinder started leaking on my 13 2.0T r-spec, and the first shop I took it to quoted me $3500. Checked with the dealer, $4500. Second shop quoted me $2500, and the third and smallest shop quoted me $1500 and they got my business, hah. Feels great now, and they put in the basic Valeo kit you can find on rock auto.
Pros: Feels great now
Vehicle:
Hyundai Genesis Coupe
Thats what I have in my NC, it has been great for my 2.5 swapped car. Clutch feel is very good, a little heavier than stock but not much. Flywheel is very livable too.
Pros: great performance, good clutch feel
Cons: a little heavier

Near as I can tell, you got a Valeo single mass conversion kit.

The clutch is awesome it's holding my bolt on tuned bk1 2.0t torque perfectly. Drives like stock no chatter that you get with a lightweight flywheel. I got the new slave cylinder/ throw out bearing flywheel and HD clutch kit.
Pros: awesome, holds torque perfectly, drives like stock, no chatter

I just did an Exedy 'OEM' type kit from Goodwin with a new Master Cylinder and a new Slave Cylinder and a long Braided clutch line from Master to Slave and I have Zero complaints! Everyone at Goodwin is Top Notch and Exedy stands by their product! I also did a light weight Exedy Flywheel. This was all on a 94 1.8 that I just bought that had the exact same Throwout Bearing grinding that you are talking about! And, once I got in there I found that the Pilot bearing was also seized. I did the rear main since I was in there too lol.
Pros: zero complaints, good product support

I used the Exedy OE clutch kit like many do. It turns out that Exedy only makes the clutch disc and pressure plate. The bearings are sourced from China, and I've found a few people that have had them fail very quickly (sometimes within weeks). I ended up ordering and using SKF bearings for both.
Pros: Exedy clutch disc and pressure plate
Cons: Exedy bearings fail quickly
Vehicle:
Mazda
The valeo kits are not = to the OEM sachs kit. They are much easier to sheer the rivets holding the marcel to the hub, the springs are more prone to getting sloppy, and the pressure plate straps and rivets are a lot less beefy.
Cons: less beefy, springs sloppy
