Replacment Clutch's

inline.four.performance · 03-27-2009, 02:50 PM

Besides replacing out the the stock clutch for another OEM clutch, which other brands of clutches offer optimal performance? Just trying to see what other people are installing besides going with OEM.

As soon as my sponsorship proposal goes through for 8thcivic, I'll be stocking up on the popular clutch kits that suits everyone's needs.

The clutch and shifter assembly are two totally different parts that are not directly affected by eachother..so no

Me and a couple of friends ran threw a couple of excedy clutch's and never really liked them. Had a friend with an all motor elantra an the excedy blew after a week.. Not sure what the variables were with that case.

Couldn't take half the beating these ACT's can though.

I've owned every kind of clutch they've released. Sprung, Un-sprung(snapped A MOTOR MOUNT WITH THIS BAD BOY IT RELEASED SO HARD), 4 puck, 6 puck, extreme pressure plates, street pressure plates. Can't go wrong with ACT in my opinion.

My Exedy Stage 2 ceramic died in like 8 months of babying it

Stage 4 clutch masters ceramic is on the way. We will see how that is.
