Default time for a new clutch any thoughts?

Ok so its goes like this i've posted a few times on here but here we go again, I'm pretty sure its time for a new clutch mine is hella lose and a few months ago i replaced the Master and slave on the clutch so now i'm saying screw it and wanted to replace it all together. I'm looking at Exedy and ACT and they're super exspensive but worth it because they're good brands Do they make a sorta OEM honda replacement kit yet is more aggresive if so what should i be looking for? Its my DD but i like to have a lil fun with it every now and then thanks for the input ahead of time also i will be getting a Skunk2 SS and some new shifter bearings from ES so hopefully itll make my tranny feel sorta newer

This sounds more like a problem with the clutch hydraulic system than a problem with the clutch, assuming that the clutch fork or pressure plate has not broken. A bad clutch generally slips.

yeah, dont think its your clutch bro..

but anyways, if it is your clutch.. try a exedy Stage 1, should be more than enough if your running stock. I actually have one. You can have it, if you want.. but you need to come pick it up..

^ That needs to be answered. "Hella loose" is very vague.


I would start by bleeding the line, and go from there. Also remember the master cylinder has adjustment for free play too.
