If you just want an OEM replacement, you can get an EXEDY OEM clutch kit (pressure plate, clutch disk, throw out bearing, pilot bearing, alignment tool) off ebay for a little more than 100 dollars shipped. Its great, i even think that Nissan used Exedy discs originally in the 240sx, but not 100% sure on that.

If your going for more performance oriented, i have heard nothing but good things about ACT or Exedy as well.

I want a good clutch that can take some abuse but nothing like a racing one because they cost to much

If you dont plan on modding your car much then the OEM replacement Exedy clutch kit will be fine. My old one held up against plenty of abuse. Just make sure that your fly wheel is in good shape, if not, then get it resurfaced. Also break in the clutch, I usually just go easy on it for the first 500 miles.
And like meantioned above, make sure you get an actually exedy clutch.

I own a competition clutch 6 puck sprung. It's lasted over 2 years it's a pretty sturdy clutch. For the value though when I'm done with the 6 puck, I'll probably go back to using the exedy. I had gotten a deal on the competition clutch at the time so thats why I use it, but I like the dependability and longevity of exedy clutches.
