Which clutch do you guys feel is best, Exedy, ACT, or Clutch Masters? :confused

I know somebody that works with me and he's got clutchmaster stage 1 on his 4th gen. That clutch is super smooth and just perfect for a daily driver to me. Although some people like stiffer clutch feel but I hate it when driving in traffic jams.

That the only clutch I know unless you go with a 6 puck from act and dam that is stiff and bites really quick and hard.

got an ACT XTSS

beefcake, stinks for traffic jams, light to light and daily ass kicking is fine

yeah i need something good for about 300 hp but also good for commuting also because i commute about 2 hours a day sometimes with stop and go traffic

 

[MNsnowdaboy]

Dam 300hp!!! oops the clutchmaster stage 1 will not hold that kind of power, sorry.

I think you might have to go with a Clutchmasters stage 3 or a ACT extreme something I forgot, similar to the 6 puck.

But you know that is the price for performance, you'll lose comfort. Just like suspension, exaust noise, engine reliability, ect ect.

 

[goinferjdm]

ok well maybe i could rock a stage one for now yeah i was looking for 300 hp in the end but thats a little ways off so i guess i could hold off

what are ur current mods, what car, what motor

 

[1998typesh]

i got a good deal on a centerforce so i bought one. i was skeptical at first but i have had no problems at all. It's lasted through 2 seasons at the strip and some street action. hasn't slipped yet. peace.

its a 4th gen prelude s right now, but once i get my jdm h22 it will be greddy 4-2-1 header, apexi power intake, thermal stealth exhaust (also thinnking about getting hi flow cat), complete energy suspension bushing kit, ground control coils with kyb agx's and a fidanza 7.5 lbs. flywheel.

why not a stock clutch. You arent gonna have the power needed to really benefit from a race/street clutch

damn dood you're gonna be putting down way more than 300hp better get a 3puck clutch :lol2

 

[goinferjdm]

Uhhh

I figured while i had it pulled apart to throw the flywheel on might as well throw in a new clutch.

 

[goinferjdm]

Thanks

Well I was thinking about putting a small shot of nos on there too, but I guess you're right, I may just go with a clutch masters fx500 for my vtec commuter. :clap

if you dont need a race/street clutch you car is gonna be slower.

Go look at people who run stock clutches and have basic bolts on, then ask them what happened when they put a race/street clutch in.....

Alright I will check into that. How long has the stock clutch been good for you guys?

 

[98vtec]

well i ahve the act clutch. But if i wasnt getting my head built i woulda gotten the stock one. So far my ACT has lasted a year with no problems.

so in your opinion just leave the clutch alone dont even get a stage one?

not unless you plan on doing internals, nitrous, turbo

yeah i was gonna throw some nitrous on it. until i get the money for my turbo :ninja

 

[98vtec]

nitrous, etc will eat on a stock clutch pretty badly.
