I have an account with my local Honda Dealer, but not Acura. My 2000 Integra Type R will need to have its clutch replaced soon. In order for me to get my discount, I have to get it from a Honda Dealership. I have found all the parts (Disc, Throwout Bearing, and Pilot Bearing) , fit other various Honda models. The part number for the Pressure Plate does not show up in the locator. The part # is not the same as a 99-00 Civic Si, however, when ordering an aftermarket clutch kit, the fitment guide shows all B series VTEC clutch kits are the same.

Is it safe to assume the 99-00 Civic Si Pressure plate is interchangeable with the 00 Integra Type R?

 

Yes.

 

Are there any cons to using a Si pressure plate?

 

Why not just set up an account with your local acura dealer? all you need to do is send them a copy of your resale certificate and business license.

 

I work at a dealership myself, but for some reason or another, we dont have an account with Acura. Starting one is not up to me, so I am stuck in this situation.

Judging by the previous post, I can order myself a complete Clutch Kit for a 99-00 Civic Si, so its no longer a situation anymore.

But again, I ask...

Are there any cons to using a non Type R Clutch kit? They both may fit and work, but what are the differences?
