Default Sachs Clutch

Any of you guys have experience with the Sachs clutch kit and flywheel?

Or I should just stick with the ACT or Exedy?

Sachs is a very well known German oem. They make a lot of parts for the German auto makers, and the quality will be very good. I didn't even know they made parts for Japanese cars. Is it that much less expensive that you don't want to go with Exedy?

I know that it's a very well know german company. They usually do VW and BMWs. Howeber, they have been out of the aftermarket business for a while in the 90's. But now, they seemed to have application for the Prelude H22 clutch kit.

It's tempted to try Sachs Clutch instead of the Exedy or ACT. It's not much cheaper, but I wanna see how the Sachs hold up for the Prelude.

Hi,

are you looking for an oem replacement or an aftermarket clutch kit? Because all i know Sachs only made oem parts for the Prelude, the only got a organic clutch without a stronger pressure plate and the flywheels got the same specs/weight as the stock ones!

Do you got the Sachs partnummers so i can take look or can talk to somebody here in germany to clear it up.

But i would rather go with a Exedy/Fidanza combo! I got this in my EUDM Accord Type-R and i love it!

I"m looking for a stright OEM replacement. I'm not planning to up the hp nor doing any modification on it either. So, Stock HP and Stock TQ rating. I also do not need a light weight flywheel. But it's tempting to have a bit weight off the flywheel.

I don't have the part #. It's kinda sketchy to get the Sachs online since they don't have much information released. I"ll see if i can dig it up.

Wonder if the Sachs is made in taiwan or China. j/k
