Since I'm having the engine out soon I was thinking of replacing the rather tired clutch that's in my car. I want something as cheap as possible with a lot of bite. Do any Zoners know of a cheap, grippy clutch out there?

Mine had a new clutch fitted a few year back, just a standard item. since ive replaced master and slave cylinder with bmw items and new fluid and its the nicest e30 clutch ive felt, nice and light 
if you renew everything with standard items i'am sure it will feel 100% better

hmmm
wouldn't it be better to think of the clutch as a vital component that delivers all the engines hard work to the gearbox.
Just do the above and you'll gripe a bit at the cost but use a cheap clutch/components and you will regret it.

You probably won't find a clutch much cheaper than ECP, or GSF sell them for.
Might be worth putting a post in the parts wanted section. Perhaps someones got one lying around.
As Tash says, the clutch is quite an important component, and the quality is not worth skimping on.
