Default AU Clutch recommendation

I am putting a new clutch in my AU 6 cylinder ute shortly, with new clutch cable at the same time.

I was thinking a standard Exedy clutch.
The idea of the Exedy Heavy Duty clutch did cross my mind but I'm unsure as to what it would be like in terms of driveability.

The car doesn't work too hard (mostly highway, (70% 80-100kmh straight line, 30% upto 70kmh town driving) and the car does not get thrashed.

I don't want a 'firewall cracker' or something really touchy or springy, just something with drivability, of course after running the clutch and pressure plate in.

All feedback appreciated.

No responses?
I can't really help you out either, but the no firewall crackers makes good sense, is probably go with factory if it's lasted well, or speak to your local brake and clutch bloke he should be able to put you onto a nice clutch and pressure plate that will do the job while still being light .

Exceedy HD Organic will give a lighter pedal that stock factory had mine in for 7 years with a fair caning still hanging in there
