Default SOO many clutch kits *WHICH IS THE BEST?* SEARCHED

I have a 92 civic hb si and about to drop in my jdm 94 gsr motor soon........but before i do that i want to change my clutch and flywheel. QUESTION IS which would be the best clutch kit (act,excedy,etc.) for my application and I already have a flywheel in mind *comptech*?


keep note that i drive my car everyday and dont push it hard all the time, I want something that would last me but grip good as hell when I pull up to another car..............

thanks HONDA-TECHERS........

Stick with OEM, don't waste your money if you'll just be loosing it at the illegals. Unless you're greatly upgrading the power output of that gsr, the stock clutch will hold fine.

Ummmm NO not sure where you got that one.

I have a gsr in my del sol... been to the track every wensday night for like the last month launching pretty hard (I also rip on it every morning on the way to work) the clutch feels great hasnt slipped once. I'd have to agree that staying stock when stock is def okay.

never had any issues with a clutchmasters, i have a stage 4 in the b-sir, but thats way too much for you. a stage 3 is a good street clutch for bolt ons. engagement isnt too harsh, and is civilized in traffic.

I've heard nothing but good from Action clutches, and they aren't hella expensive.

exedy makes discs for Honda among other companies; maybe that is what you heard.

I just have an ACT clutch and I have never had any problems with it. Been daily driving and racing and A/X with it for over 2 years.

I have an exedy in my turbo si and the pedal pressure is a little stiffer than stock,so if your looking for something that is good for daily driving as well exedy is the way to go

i agree....an Exedy Stage 1 is perfect for daily driving and those spirited bursts.....i smoked a Si coupe the other day and all i have is a exedy clutch/fpr/MSD wires and DX piping on my B16
