Need clutch advice

[aleks77]

My Action clutch (2ms unsprung) is on the way out after only 12,000 miles at 350whp (most the time below 300!) so I need some suggestions for a new one. Im keeping my 8.9lbs flywheel.

Im currently on a stock motor @ 10psi, around 250whp.
Plan to meth kit it and go for 15psi (roughly 300-320 whp)

I know the exedy stage 1 should be a good choice, just wondering if anyone has other opinions? Thank you

I'm also looking for a new clutch to handle about 400whp, my stage 4 Bully cannot handle the extra power. I was looking into the twin disk competition clutch, maybe that could be an option for you.

Act street heavy-duty/strip sprung hub disk its a 6 puck but its very streetable. It held up to my combo with my cb7 well when I had it anyway. What are you going to do flywheel wise ?

[aleks77]

Im only going for 320whp max...i dont wanna do overkill, i want something very streetable, if my plans change and i go for more power then ill get a bigger clutch but for the next year im gonna stick around that whp range.

The setup I mentioned earlier is nowhere enar overkill but it holds the power significantly.

hey sparkle are you talking about ACT part # HA3-HDG6?

Im in this boat too. Was planning to but exedy but wanted a 6 puck

Ive noticed the exedy clutches are rated way lower for max torque than other brands, like spec or act. I was looking between spec stage 2 or stage 3 six puck. very good prices on those also. Give them a look

Aleks: Competition clutch stg 3 segmented would work perfect for you, good holding power, but not a pain to drive like a 6 puck.

Mozz: competition clutch stg 4 would work perfect for you. If you want some extra holding power, they offer a dual diaphragm pressure plate.

I have the stg 3 in my 300whp integra, and the stg 4 with dual diaphragm in my accord.

Damn the stage 4 competition clutch is $60 cheaper than stage 3? Is the stage 4 a lot more of a pain to drive daily? I just dont see myself paying $60 more for a clutch that holds less power...

[LoDollar92LX]

it is a big difference in street driving scenarios. the material of the segmented makes engagement alot less harsh, the stg 4 is the cerametallic and its pretty grabby, probably similar to the 6 puck you have now

act sprung 4 puck is somewhat streetable

Got a great deal on a stage 3 competition, ordered.

Should i get a brand new OEM Throw out bearing? Or use the one provided?

Where did you order your clutch from? I need to get one soon.
