wanna know what clutch u use

[desol11]

wasup yall looking 4 a new clutch. i know there r many different brands of clutches out there. iam currently using a exedy stage one clutch and act pro light fly wheel on my built h23. prob is i burnt it out at 15,000 miles so now i want to get a little feed back from yall on witch clutch yall prefer before i buy a new one

[wed3k]

heard the XTD stage 2's and stuff arent bad at all.

i've got XTD stage 3 and am pretty happy with it. Albeit, i've got a turbo and about 250lbs wtqu...not sure if your built h23 will make that...but for a performance application i'd get the stage 3. Driveability is fine if you ask me. Very slight learning curve...and slight clutch chatter..but slight and only sometimes.

ACT
HA3-HDSS
and Streetlite XACT Flywheel (600190)

No Problems

I like the ACT HDSS also.

They are pricey, but they pretty much drive like an OEM clutch with a lot of clamping power.

The HDSS (Heavy duty pressure plate, street/strip clutch disk) is good to about 300 lb/ft.

If you upgrade to the extreme pressure plate, this same disk is good to nearly 500lb/ft.

It is a sprung hub, so it is easy to engage, and the pedal pressure is about the same as stock. Just a little firmer.

I have never had one chatter or not last, so I am happy with them.

Usually, you get what you pay for.

XTD Stage 3 here. I had to go for what I could afford, but for a clutch that isn't a well known brand, I'm happy with it. I've been beating the piss out of it for a good 10 months now with no problem Running the XTD 12lb flywheel with it.

random question here.....what is the difference between the stages in the clutch. i have an auto so i have no idea how to even use that extra pedal lol

Thanks man, sorry to thread jack

The stages don't really mean anything compared to other brands... they just mark the more performance oriented clutches within a brand. My XTD Stage 3 is probably about as good as an Exedy Stage 2. The higher the stage, the more power the clutch should be able to hold, and it often result in harsher engagement. My clutch is actually quite smooth for what it is.

[desol11]

where do u get this xtd clutch from and how much does this cost. p.s my motor is built to support over 400hp soon as i find the right cluth my next step is turbo

[Boost_Lee]

you can get XTD sets pretty cheap on ebay dude...but i dunno how well they hold

i had a clutch specialties 6 puck kit and it slipped....after i used a ACT pressure plate, the problem was solved.

i have the XTD stage two on the integra. a great clutch, and a great price.

XTD stage 2 with 12lbs flywheel.

great price, great quality.

just a word of adviec for everyone and anyone that will be replacing a clutch, break it in properly.

I didnt break mine in at all. I ripped on it the first 5 miles, lol. and now i have chatter, which annoys me really.
