I have an Exedy HD clutch and I can recommend it 100%.
Great feel, great bite, no shudder, easy to drive etc.
I had a friend who skimped out on a clutch and it was a huge mistake

I've just put a Heavy Duty kit in from Australian Clutch Services (Xtreme Outback) and it's going great so far. Lighter pedal feel than the factory, awesome bite, smooth operation. They even do a chromoly flywheel option for the FTO's 8) Not sure on pricing, I know the kit for my Triton was about $700RRP (of course I didn't pay that ;)). The FTO kit should be around the $450-$500 mark I imagine.
I'll have an FTO one day... i swear!

until then:
1. 2001 Merc-Benz A160 (porta-loo on wheels)
2. 2007 Peugeot 307 TDi (more fun than you'd expect)
3. [url=ttp://ftoaustralia.com/v3/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=25373]2009 Mitsubishi Triton Di-D (a monster in its own right)[/url]
4. 1992 Nissan NX Coupe (club car and project car)
5. 1996 Holden SB Barina - "The Nugget"
6. 1996 Jeep XJ Cherokee Sport - The Budget Build
7. 2010 Toyota Landcruiser 76 Series - V8 Goodness... - Build coming soon.
8. 1990 Audi 90 manual - The delightfully dignified daily driver
