i have a pretty much stock b18c5. id like to get your opinions on a good clutch/pressure plate setup. i would like something a little more less forgiving

ive heard 6puck sprung clutch disc is a good start.
opinions?

thanks

 

Forgiving of what?

If you want a stiff pedal - MaXX Xtreme pressure plate. Yum!

 

If you want a STIFF pedal, get the Cusco/OS Giken Super Single

 

Stock clutch.

 

YAYA! .... sounds like some "sisterhood" that was in a movie a while back.

Ditto.

 

Action 1KS kevlar.

awesome build quality, and the kevlar is very durable.

 

Stock or excedy organic

Thats what I have

 

yes i would like a stiffer pedal, but i dont want something overkill that'll kill my tranny

thanks for the responses

 

Toda clutch kit is what I would recommend. Slightly stiffer than stock pedal feel and bites hard.

Mate it up with a light weight flywheel.
Toda clutch kit and Flywheel = perfect combo

 

clutchmasters bites every single one of my gears and i couldnt be happier. If you dont need a clutch though, just keep you stock one in all honesty.

 

i like the sprung 3 puck clutch from mugen/jun/exedy

very lightwieght and nice engagement

 

yeah im not going to replace a good clutch. i think just need mount inserts, so i ordered some. if that doesnt fix my prob, then i might get a new clutch kit.

thanks again

Can't go wrong with oem/spoon whichever is cheaper.

spoon sucks...their parts are either oem parts repackaged and 3 times the price or they are other companies parts...

I don't have alot of experience with many aftermarket clutches but I will contribute that I had a Clutchmasters OEM in my '00 R and put about 3K miles on it, with mild use. I never slipped it or sidesteped it, and then sold the car to a friend. After a few weeks while coming back from NOPI, it totally went out on him on I-95. On a side note, the install was by a Honda specialist with over 25 years of experience. Maybe you do get what you pay for.

I've had the ACT Extreme with a hybrid disc in the past, but may be looking for a new flywheel/flutch combo for my NA car in a little while.

 

You can see where the stock (exedy) failed in this picture. That's why I really like the Action 1KS for its build quality. The engagement is nearly stock once you get used to it...and it bites a lot better.
