On Friday i blew my clutch and i took it to a shop and had them do it because i dont have the time to change it because of school, when i got it back the clutch feels like a civic clutch instead of a prelude clutch? is this a problem because i feel like i am driving my old civic again? PLEASE HELP They gave me a brand new clutch with a 1 year warranty, so i dont know?

depends on what clutch they use. But when you get a new clutch on if will be diffrent than your clutch before.

Ok, because i went from a pretty decen stiff clutch to this thing that just feels like nothing pretty much

So do i have to break in the Clutch because they did replace that and the pressure plate, but they resurfaced the flywheel they didnt replace it, i was told that you dont have to break it in if you dont REPLACE the flywheel, so do i have to just let it be and break in and then it will eventually get stiffer or what?

I doubt it will get much stiffer, I would still drive it easy for a few hundred miles.

Thank you, i have talked to the guy and he told me that the reason it was so stiff before was because i had something already broke and i was just driving it broke already and that is the reason it was so stiff and now it is fixed which is why it is easy

I had an act-xtss clutch in my lude, it was so stiff I broke the pivot ball
that the shift fork pivots on in the bellhousing not once but twice in 3 months.

Switched to a centerforce clutch, not near as stiff and more than enough
grip for my setup

wow that is crazy, i dont know he told me though that this is the way a hydraulic clutch should feel when it is a good clutch, and i was like ok sorry...haha

I just replaced my clutch. It was moderately stiff before. Immediately after the change, there was no resistance whatsoever. After a few hundred miles it started to stiffen up.
