I've used 4 of thier clutches now. One on an NA D, one on a boosted D, one on a boosted B16, one on my current NA B18C. Never a single issue. LOVE thier clutches.

they use Daiken OEM pressure plates supposedly reman'd to new specifications.
This is pretty common practice actually.

What are you pissed off about? Do you know for a fact that its an OEM pressure plate? You guys read some post about a TOYOTA clutch that indeed looked like an OEM unit repainted... but then again, WHO CARES even if it is an OEM unit. Does it hold the power? So far to this point the answer is yes for me. I have never had a single issue with the clutches or the flywheel I got from them. EVER. If they wanted to make the pressure plate 30% WEAKER then stock, thats fine so long as I have no issues. Get my point here?

I'm about to install another one of these clutches on a 2.3l H22 setup for another 'customer'. I have full faith in these products in terms of their Honda lineup. They look EXACTLY like Action products to me. Their paperwork says they are remanufactured or modified Action clutches also.

No I dont know for a fact, yet. Thats why I said I want to call them, get the whole story. When I buy a stage 3 clutch I want a stage 3 clutch not a 6 puck disk and an oem pressure plate, or even a pressure plate that has the same load that an OEM has. No thanks, ill have to pass.

Again I ask why not? What does it matter so long as it doesn't break and holds the power you send it? Why is everyone insisting that they get a stiff pedal, or "35% greater holding capacity"... I bought my clutch to transfer power from the engine to the transmission. It does that nicely, I am happy. I didn't buy it to tell all my friends how stiff my pedal is and how cool my clutch is because it can hold 5000lb/ft of torque.... according to the manufacture at least.

I have the same Clutch and it never gave me a problem. If it hold the power that all you really need to know. Alot of people here are saying there very reliable. If you don't want to get it then don't go spend it on a 360 dollar clutch that gonna do the same thing.

If i wanted what you want, I would have got a stage1 not a stage3. i dont give a **** about how hard the pedal is.....???

When I launch with almost 200lbs tq my **** slips, peroid. not much, but regardless it slips. if i had an actual stage 3 clutch with a lot more holding power it would not. im not bitching or complaining, i simply asked for a contact. I want to know excatly what they are doing, and if they really are using oem PP. If they are using it, why would you buy them? id rather just buy a disk and use my current Pressure plate, no reason to buy another if it has the same holding power. for right now the clutch is ok, but here pretty soon thers gonna be lots more ppower coming out of the H series, and these slicks will make it slip lots more... not ok!

Not sure what this means there tough guy. I have run ALL stage 3 clutches from XTD. Nice try though...

Why would I buy it? Simple, its CHEAP AS HELL. So its not like I got ripped off regardless of if the PP is OEM or not. You are playing the name game, thats all it boils down to. People assume OEM = weak and garbage which is not always the case. I ran it on a boosted D on 10lbs. I am sure it made damn near the torque you do if not more, never slipped. Ran it on a boosted B16 on 10lbs, again, never slipped. If you want to assume that because its a MODIFIED OEM part its junk, then quit the debate here and move on to something more expensive for peace of mind.

Like I said, even if its was OEM, Taiwain, China, whatever... if it holds the power, doesn't break or explode, and lasts, what more do you need from a clutch? $200 more on the purchase price just to ease your mind?

Far from a rep. Exeddy clutches are *** in my opinion. I destroyed the disc on one in a matter of months on an NA B18C. Metal literally "tore" and the springs came out! I'll never buy the full face exeddy again. Especially condering that THEY ALSO USE OEM replacement PP's and charge about twice what XTD does. People, understand that just because something is an "OEM REPLACEMENT" doesn't mean its complete crap. Does the XTD slip? No. Who the hell cares then what they use?
