I have no problems with clutch masters stage 4. Also I have heard great reviews about clutch net clutchs.

I have a ClutchNet Stage 3 brand new in the box for $250. 4 Puck, sprung hub.

I'm selling it because I need something a bit more mellow.

Have heard excellent reviews on this one.

I highly prefer the Clutch Masters Stage 3 for FI applications. It DOES require a significant break-in, but once that is done it grabs like hell. Not to mention it will give less driveline shock that the copper puck-style clutches, which means less chance of broken axles and trannies. The longevity of the segmented kevlar disk is also superior to the copper puck-style disk as well.

Smooth, pressure is only slighty more than stock.

All Clutch Masters the same pedal pressure because they all use the same pressure plate. Its only the disc that is different in every stage. I love my stage 4, holds all the power and takes a beating.

I say go clutchnet. They've been around for a long time doing a lot more than just hondas and have it down pretty good. I had a clutchmasters stage III in my crx and the springs on the pressure plate gave out at about 700 miles. I was babying the car during the break in period but it happened anyway. I know of a few other people that have had the same problem. Of course, I replaced it with another stage III and didn't have any more problems.

You can get a dual diaphram pressure plate from clutchnet if you want something crazy stiff. I did that, just trying to get my right leg beefed up to match my soon to be Aaaaarnold left calf.

I have a clutchmasters stage 4 , one of the best clutches out there. And it still retains the stock pedal feel.

How about the engaging of the disc(CM stage 4), does it chatter like ACT solid puck?

it chatters but you can get it down to a minimum with practice.


Does it chatter like an ACT? I dont know never had one.
