You know what's funny, out of my last 5 cars, I've never owned them long enough to change the clutches. On my 6th car, had it for 2 years and 4 months, and clutch is still good. So... don't have any opinions on what clutch to buy.

your car is basically stock so a stage 1 exedy is more than enough. unless you plan to use forced induction or race id stick with something simple

Ive seen stock clutches last well over 150k my old neighbor had a Acura Legend and went 225k on a stock clutch before he sold it. Its all in your driving. You wanna do burn outs all the time and dropping the clutch expect it to last you 100miles.

if your boosting go exedy stage two. ceramatallic three puck its more than enough. im making near 500 whp and the clutch holds up well. not bad for daily driving either. not as much chatter as you may think. holds up well on high revs.

This thread is retarded. If you plan on boosting wait until your ready to boost then go with something like the exedy stage 2. If your clutch is bad now then just go to honda and buy a new one it will last a real long time unless you burn the **** out of it. you do understand that 30,000 miles is like 3 years right? Unless you do a whole lot of driving that seems like a pretty long time.
