Reccomendations on which Clutch to buy (<$250)

Bout time to get a new clutch, Ive got a budget of $250. Any reccomendations on a brand of clutch to get thats under $250? Ive heard the ebay F1 racing and the XTR are just junk...?

Oem is always the right part and always the right fit. You can't go wrong with original parts.
