You can get an Exedy clutch kit from rockauto for $100 including the 5% discount code you can find online and Exedy is the best in the business not named Honda.

Get that ^^ and be done with it. Same clutch I abuse in my car, has held up to 8 years, 4 engines, 100s of drag launchs and burnouts even with much more power than stock.

I replaced my clutch about 6 months i had the car, and i used the Exedy kit, couldnt be more pleased

It was my first time pulling a tranny and replacing a clutch, but it was easier than i thought, Still going strong after another 2 years so far. (fingers crossed) lol

P.S, while you're down there, (or whoever is) Replace the rear main seal gasket

Not sure what year/variant of Prelude you have and where you've been looking, but this one for a 5th gen base is $126 with free shipping.

Been using this same kit installed in two different H motors in the last 5 years. Issues? Not even once. Also just installed the equivalent of this in my g/f's Subaru. No issues there either.

Plainly said, Exedy is top notch.
