There was not a v6 manual in the 94 accords. What car do you have?

i was wondering the same thing about the title....
there was no 5th generation V-6 or even a 6th generaion V-6 that had a manual transmission. Started only on 7th generation!

thats news to me... no manual tranny was offered in a 5th gen accord v6 as far as I know and needless to say the 1995 was the first year option for the v6 anyways.

ANYWAYS... the OP looks like made a mistake on their year... if you notice the title of the thread has been edited. Unfortunately the edit only shows once you clip into the thread and reread the title on the first post... but from the main forum view it is not.

So back to the topic. I had a spec stage 3 4 puck in my boosted 95... not a bad clutch for the money, just did not last long. I only got a couple thousand miles of it before it started slipping (which was right after I retuned for more power)... I may have overpowered the clutch.

I would not have went with the solid hub for a daily driver street car personally cause it will be a bit more rough engaging than a sprung hub... may have a bit more chatter as well. You should be fine though, once you learn to drive on that style clutch it wont be too bad. It will definately be alot more aggressive than stock. Pedal feel on the spec is not too bad though, just slightly stiffer.

I have a Spec Stage 3 clutch in my 4CYL 04 and no problems. I had no problems, but I my flywheel (comptech tsx ) to be machined together with the clutch at Spec, so no help there, just bolted it up fine.

We used Spec exclusively on our race car when I was home and we had a very good experience so far. Right now we have their triple disc and it is holding the 800+ hp very well.
