Any parts chain can get clutches for these cars, 80-100$ I ended up getting a Clutchmasters OEM replcement kit (had Exedy components in it!) for like 130 including shipping... Has worked great so far. While you're in there I would highly recommend having the flywheel resurfaced by a machine shop that knows what they're doing (stepped flywheel)..Makes ALL the difference

Clutchnet has a decent selection of stuff. I ran their stuff in my Accord. Had the OEM clutch, green pressure plate and 9lb flywheel. Got the whole thing for around $400, but you could get just the clutch and PP from them. Worked great, I think they were just Exedy parts anyways. Not sure who made the flywheel, but it was good quality! Held up way stronger than my old OEM setup. And love the revs from the light flywheel!!
