Default Need Help D15b non vtec swap clutcg problems!!!

I have a 95 honda civic sedan with a jdm d15b non vtec swap that was in it when i got the car. I have no clue what year d15b this is but ive searched and searched and havnt found a straight answer. Recently my clutch has started slipping, i knew it was weak when i got it but now its time to replace it but I Have No Clue What Clutch To Buy!!!!!! I do place on getting a oem exedy replacement clutch kit sense it such a small motor oem will do fine. I just dont know what clutch to get i cant seem to find a clutch for a non vtec d15b so i was just needing to know what clutch and flywheel from other D series will fit my d15 perfect?

My 95 Del Sol S had a D15B7, should be the same clutch. Here's the hondapartsnow page:

All '92 - '00 D-series clutches are the same.

OP,You have to see first what flywheel you have. Then you can buy the correct size clutch kit. Actually, 90-05 d-series clutches are interchangeable but not exactly the same. Honda made flywheels and pressure plate that can acommodate both a 210mm and 200mm disc, 20 spline. Some can only fit a 200mm disc. Your flywheel and clutch kit must match. Exedy oem that fits 5th,6th,7th gen USDM civics will not bolt in the flywheel that matches a 200mm pressure plate. The dowels and bolt holes is a long way off. If you want to use a 210mm clutch like EXEDY, you must also buy a matching flywheel if you have a different flywheel. I've just been there very recently.

That's true about the '90 - '05 clutches being the same, although '90 - '91 use a different release bearing. Not sure about the '01 - '05 clutches, although I think they're the same. '06 - '11 R-series also uses the same clutch, but with a different pilot bearing.

The only flywheels that are smaller are '88 - '89 flywheels. If you have a hydro trans (which you should if it's a '92 - '00 civic) the chances of you having a small flywheel are pretty small.

so basically i have to have a matching flywheel and clutch kit to 210mm or 200mm, 20 spline for it to work??

so will this clutch kit work as long as i have a 210mm flywheel, 20 spline???

I can't remember what the spline count is, but yes 210mm. The only year with a different spline count is '88. '89 uses a small disc like '88 but with the normal spline count.

Yes, flywheel and clutch kit that can fit a 210mm disc,20 splines. P/N 08022 same as the link you posted will fit. 88-89 came only in 200mm disc, 21 splines AFAIK.
