yes. But you need to use the flywheel because it is a larger size clutch assembly.

No
88 has a different spline count on the input shaft than the 89-91s

yeah theres some argument going on about this. if beleive you can get a 90-91 flywheel an pressure plate, but to have the matching 212mm clutch disk, use the 87 honda prelude clutch disk. we just did this on my freinds ZC tranny. runs fine engages fine

if the tranny is an 88 then you have to use an 88 clutch disc. the only other year you can use a 91 clutch disc in is 90. theres a way to create a hybrid though... i think you can use the 91 flywheel with the 88 disc.. i'm not sure though.

It won't fit if you have the '88 transmission in it, the 90-91 clutch is bigger than the 88 or 89 and the 88 has a unique spline count. Before you commit find out what you have in it for certain.

88 tranny smaller PP smaller flywheel diffrent spline count from 89-91.
89 tranny same PP same flywheel as 88 but same spline count as 90-91.
90-91 bigger PP bigger flywheel same spline count as 89.
so for an 88 you need 88 disk 88 or 89 pp and flywheel or you can upgrade to the 90-91 bigger pp and flywheel but you need the lude disk as posted above.
89 you need 89 disk, 88 or 89 pp and flywheel or you can upgrade to 90-91 disk and pp and flywheel.
90-91 you use 90-91 disk pp and flywheel or if your in a bind you can use the 89 disk pp and flywheel.

88 is a 21 spline
89+ is a 20 spline
84-87 Prelude 2.0 liter disc is 21 spline, 212mm
