I’m currently in the market for a new clutch kit for my 2002 Honda Accord EX. It’s a 2.3L with a manual transmission. I’m wanting to purchase all new components. Clutch, Pressure plate, throw out bearing, flywheel, Clutch master Cylinder, and Slave cylinder.

I’m looking for a brand recommendation I’m looking at ones on RockAuto they have a kit made by AMS automotive that contains everything I listed for 200$ but I know nothing about AMS Auto. If I buy everything in pieces I can buy everything made by Exedy without the flywheel for around 180$ but they don’t carry an flywheel made by them. I found info online saying Exedy was a good OEM replacement. Either way I’m just looking for some good advice on the subject thanks.

 

I think the only "real" advice I have to offer is don't get a "heavy-duty" clutch for a stock car. I have found that they chatter and are simply more annoying in a regular non-modified car. When it comes to brands, I've used Sachs and Valeo probably the most. I've never used an Exedy OEM clutch replacement, but I would presume it's going to be pretty good. I've also not heard of any issues with AMS either. With regards to the flywheel, again just make sure it's OEM-like, a lightened flywheel on a stock car can be really annoying as well.
