Before everyone jumps on you:

What power are you making?
What power are you planning in the future?
Do you do any track or drag events, or is this stricktly a daily driver?

If you're making near stock power and no plans for much bigger, I'd say some sort of stage 2 clutch.
Something with a bit more clamp force, but with an organic full-face disc for easy engagement.
See:

Southbend
Centerforce (dual friction)
ACT
Spec

Aftermarket clutches are designed to hold more power, or to engage faster (puck style discs), but they aren't designed to last longer than the stock clutch. The only way they would last longer is if you're making more power than the stock clutch can hold and it's slipping and wearing out faster than usual.

A clutch should last about 100,000 miles with a good driver, even if you drive fast all the time and shift alot.

If you're not making at least 40 hp more than stock, then the stock clutch is fine. If you're wearing them out very quickly, then you're abusing it and you'll need to work on your driving technique so that you don't slip the clutch so much.

True what he said, but if you ARE going to make more power, or you AREN'T going to change your driviung habits, do what I say.
