soft = good all around driving suburbs, city

hard = performance, circuit/track oriented.

imagine having a stiff high performance clutch, as a daily driver - stop and go traffic, your foot would get beat up.

I love the Honda clutch. My friend has an Altima SE-R and pressing that clutch is like doing a leg press.

Be happy with the softness.

2k6civicsi · 02-10-2008, 11:13 PM

vythai · 02-11-2008, 01:26 AM
