Default which clutch?

Hey all! Im going to buy a new clutch, pressure plate, and flywheel for my ap1 very soon. I know this has been covered plenty of times im sure, but i just wanted to ask myself. Im wanting to fix everything on the car then put it up for sale to pay off my loan and go back to school. I wanna go with an oem set up, but it seems just getting a stage 1 kit will be a little cheaper. My question is, can i resurface the flywheel? And use that flywheel with either an oem set up or a stage one clutch and pressure plate? Im trying to not spend more than $500.

Thanks guys!

I just used some really fine grit sandpaper and scuffed the surface a little to break the old glaze. I would use an OEM AP2 clutch disk so there is no annoying "clutch buzz".

Which clutch?
The pedal on the left.

The middle one makes you go slower.
The one on the right makes you go faster.

Ive been thinking about getting this clutch. Ive read good things about them and it has a year warranty. Also, my friend put a stage two clutch of theirs in his rsx type s and it worked great. But does anyone know if i can use the oem flywheel with it?

Just buy an oem clutch kit. Not expensive. Resurface the flywheel and good to go. Whats wrong with your current clutch?
