Default new clutch virgin.

whats up guys. i'm goin to be needing a new clutch within the next couple months. i'm not sure what kind i should go with though. i want something that feels somewhat similar to stock. i'm somewhat limited on money too, so i can only spend like four hundred on it.

much appreciated

$400, does that include paying for the work to be done? or are you doing it yourself?

$400 to spend can get you a stage 1 clutch and a lightened flywheel (aftermarket) package. Look around at local shops.

If you really want to stick with OEM specs, get an EXEDY Clutch OEM Equivalent (DAIKEN) kit and you will have similar results. Don't forget to resurface the flywheel upon installation. I got the clutch kit for $130

If you want a stronger clutch that is stronger than stock, but not too harsh, get a stage one clutchmasters, exedy, etc...it will probably cost about $250+. Don't forget labor, unless you are doing it yourself.

Unless youre making significantly more power than stock, theres nothing wrong with an oem spec clutch from exedy/daikin.
Buy it on ebay for cheap

i agree. but if u want summin thats gonna grip a lil harder i would go with a stage 2 or stage 3. im running a stage 3 comp clutch in a daily driven 2000 hatch with an itr in it and it runs great but traffic tends to be a bitch.

i bought an exedy clutch from ebay for my GSR. it was the OEM equivalent one. was pretty good i'd say nothing to drastic if your looking for a stock but aftermarket clutch. cost me exactly $153!

Why would you need more grip? Have you slipped a stock disc running stock power? Its totally unnecessary

Stage one (or OEM spec) clutch from Exedy and a lightened flywheel.
