Default HELP! Any one fixed the clutch buzz?

I have a clutch buzz and will be fixing it soon..but have couple of questions..
(MY00, 62k miles)

1. People recommend OEM clutch parts but isn't it same as the ones I have right now?? and wouldn't it eventually occur again or did honda replace all OEM clutch parts that are on the market right now?

2. I heard I don't have to replace the flywheel..my question is..does it wear out like other parts? should I reuse it or get a new flywheel??

3. I saw a clutch kit with ACT "lightened" flywheel, how does lightened flywheel effect the feel of the whole clutch system and driving??

4. I found a guy in the forum selling OEM clutch kit for $400 excluding the flywheel..and he said they are Exedy (said OEM clutch parts are exedy..true?)
should I buy it?? Anything I should find out about it??

Well, my goal is to fix the clutch buzz so give me any recommendations or advices..and any websites I can buy the parts..
thanks..

The clutch was redesigned to get rid of the buzz. Any new OEM clutch you buy will be the new design.

You don't have to replace the flywheel. But an excellent mod is a light flywheel and as long as you are there, might as well do it. The car will rev much faster. Downside is that it will decellerate at drop throttle much quicker and can make launching from a light a little more difficult.

I'm not so sure that the oem is an Exedy...don't recall hearing that before.

Check Hardtop Guy for oem kits. Consider a 9lb flywheel rather than some of the super light 8lb versions if you are concerned about drivability. Spoon has a 9lb, Toda and Fidenza have 8lb models.
