Default What Clutch and where to buy?

Hi,
I've got an '02 Bug Eye Sti (6spd) and I've just picked up the early signs of clutch slip when the car boosts at approx 4000rpm.

I'm keen to upgrade the clutch to an organic one as I do drive it fairly hard, but the car is standard spec so not pushing silly BHP!
I've been pointed in the direction of Greddy, ACT and Exedy clutches.

A bit of research on here would seem to indicate most go for the Exedy option? I would gratefully appreciate anyone's input on this as I don't want to regret my final decision!

Secondly, who are the best (and ultimately by this I don't mean the cheapest ie.ebay sellers) people to buy from? That said, obviously price is a major consideration!

Any help/advice would be welcome!

Thanks
Will

My clutch is slipping at the moment in 5th and 6th. I am about to order a 240mm exedy organic uprated clutch kit and uprated forged lightweight flywheel from Aztec performance for £599 inc.
