Default What should I get?

I want a new clutch because its chirping when im at a stop (clutch bearings I think). Here are my 3 choices, what are your experiences with each and what do you have in your car?

1. Should I get ACT Light weight flywheel(377) and HD Clutch (577) = 954?

Or

2. Should I get Fidenza flywheel (315) and ACT HD Clutch (577) = 892?

Or

3. Should I get FIdenza Flywheel (315) and Fidenza Clutch (402) = 717?

The only aftermarket clutches I've driven were Centerforce. My H22 has one and as does my brothers Cherokee. We've both put a LOT of miles on them and they're still going strong.

I agree with Anthony, I kept breaking the springs on my act clutch in my integra but they could make ones for the s2000 more durable.

What is your car going to do? Do you need it to hold some serious power or just want a comfortable replacement for daily needs in a stock/semi-stock car.

If you are not sure, I would recommend exedy stage 1.

I had competition stage 2 on my stock power car, clutch last 15k and it broke.

now, I have exedy oem replacement, but the pedal feels lighter than my civic . It would be enough to hold NA power through.

Exedy or it's mother company make our OEM clutch, and it's cheaper than OEM.

It you want to try out the exedy OEM replacement, you can come over or hit me up at the next meet.

I would stay stock then. The stock clutch held up great when I was supercharged, never slipped and it drove like .. well.. like stock!

If you want quick revs, you can always just get lighter flywheel, but if you're not going FI or do track racing anytime soon, stay stock and save yourself some headaches since its your DD.
