Default Help clutch install

Hello everyone a have 92 EG with a B16A2, When I drive he car for awhile the clutch starts to slip. I'm about to change the clutch myself to save some $$$$$.
My question is, Can I use this write up? https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=811691
I searched and this is what I found, but its for a Dseries.
If so, can someone add anything else to it? Or if someone have a better DYI?
Thanks

A clutch is a clutch. The D and B are not that much different. You'll be fine following that guide.

if your doing it on jackstands, find a second person. so when the tranny goes back on 1 person can position the trans whil you thread in the bolts. also helpful if someone holds the crank pully still while you torque down the flywheel bolts or itll spin. ive done 6 clutches. if you havnt done so. if you like replace the flywheel bolts too. i used arp.

sounds reasonable. I've done a few myself on both B and D, and they're similar enough that it doesn't really matter.

You don't normally have to have a pickle fork to take balljoints loose, but it helps. Usually, you can break them loose by banging downwards on the lower control arm with a hammer.

I would caution you to find a helm's manual and use the correct torque specs for everything. It's especially easy to strip the heads on the flywheel bolts, so be careful.

jack LCA up, Stick a lug nut between LCA and the spindle, lower it, it'll pop it out. Much easier.

Don't forget to use clutch alignment tool, I did mine with motor outta the car so it wasn't that hard, but with motor still in car you dont have much space

Yea the most important things to note are correct installation of throwout bearing ensure its fully locked in

The alignment tool is priceless and will save you time

And make sure the bigger part of the disc faces out (basics)
