Never saw one before it was used and abused. Very nice, looks like a regular street/strip disc.

 

[pills_PMD]

you got it

33% stronger than an OEM ITR clutch

which is stronger than the stock b16 clutch that was in there.

 

[phunky.buddha]

Very nice. It should still be just as smooth as the ITR unit, right?

i just ordered one from clutch city online. lemme know how it is.

 

[pills_PMD]

yes. it engages a bit stiffer than my b16 clutch did, but that is expected. the ITR one was slightly stiffer and this is stronger than that, but it feels like OEM quality.. i didn't drive it really hard yet obviously but it felt very nice for the little driving i did

Cool. My ACT is significantly stiffer than anything I've driven at a dealership, but it's still livable- I'm just curious how it compares to your setup.

nice pills! did you have to trim your hondata gasket, where the ports are? i did not when i put mine on, but someone told me i should have... it was hard to see, but it looked like it lined up ok with the head.

Nope. HD pressure plate, SS disc.

I've posted this before -but I love the Exedy stuff. If you look every high end Japanese tuner runs them. The flywheel clutch combo makes a mind blowing differnce, as far as N/A stuff goes. I can get them for a great price too. I can get others cheaper but with Exedy I definately felt it was worth the money. Our project cars will use them from now on. It's going to break the bank on our S2K though.

 

[pills_PMD]

no it's actually that i dont trust ACT or clutchmasters.

it's my dad's shop that get's exedy clutches for cost.

daikin makes most of the OEM clutches for japanese cars and i trust OEM quality.

 

[cws13]

Fuck Clutchmasters in the face. Trashed my motor and tranny after 5K.

japan makes the best car parts... i thought it was abundantly obvious....

I hope you meant for "mild builds" Adam, b/c OEM Japan (stuff from Honda) isn't always the best. IMO that is.

aem uses excedy clutches and puts their name on them.
