I personally run the Centerforce D/F and it works great, love it.

Most people on here will recommend either Centerforce or Spec so its ultimately up to you

whats the pedal feel like? i'm used to the heavy pedal of the king cobra, and to be honest, i like it a lot...the car is my DD, but driven hard, with most likely a h/c/i in the near future

from what ive read/heard, the Centerforce DF can take a lot of abuse and still last a long *** time..true?

yeah the centerforce can take some abuse.

as for clutch stiffness its really soft like the oem clutch. so if you are used to heavy petal feel you might want to go spec, I have heard good things about them too but never personally used one

yeah, i'm not gonna make my decision based on the feel of the pedal, i would obviously get used to the light pedal in like a day, i was jsut wodnering the feel of the d/f

overall i just want the clutch that can take abuse, and put up the rigors of daily driving (all in town driving...prob a few trips down the shore but thats it for highway)

The Centerforce can handle that. I drive 100 miles to the track, run it,then another 100 back, drive it around town once a week or so. Its good stuff

CF DF is the poop. feels lighter than the stock pedal and it grabs like a motha.
