Default Honda CRX Clutch sugestions

Hi all,
It was a familier clutch sliping feeling when upshifting from 1 to 2nd gear under full throtle. Oh yeah!.. the clutch is on the way out.
I adjusted the clutch cable before it goes completely.
So the opportunity is to get something decent. Searching on ebay I found few options...

I like the chromoly 8 pound flywheel kit. Not sure about the 6 puck clutch. I was told they are to rough to daily driver.
I was also told to stay away from aluminum fly wheels.
The problem is that I can not take the thing apart to measure the fly wheel and compare as I'm still driving the car.
The Car in question is HONDA CRX 1990 SI JAPANESE IMPORT.. engine is TwinCam ZC Black top. I think the designation is D16A8/A9.
Does anyone know where I can get stage 2 clutch kit for this car?. I'm In australia Sydney.
Are Aimcoclutch and Gripforce-clutches reputable in US?
Any help would be appreciated...
I'm a car enthusiast and will be doing my own instal. So technical jargon is welcome.
Arnold

I had a 6 puck metallic disc with springs and it wasn't bad at all for a d.d. Last weekend I swapped that out for a 6 puck metallic with no springs... full race, and I love driving it everyday. The only problem with that is there's no play, it's either engaged or not... It feels like a regular clutch to me, maybe cuz I'm used to it. But It's not as bad as it's made out to be for everyday use.
