J.T how is the Spoon clutch/flywheel setup? does the clutch grab a lot harder than the oem? I heard 30%? Did you replace your pressure plate and bearings?

I replaced everything and honestly.... I don't feel much if any difference.

The clutch isn't noisy anymore though.

Never ever go to Billy Craft Honda..
they tried to charge me 600 bucks for pressure plate, and flywheel. Then when I told them hardtop.com's prices[about 450 for all including pilot bearings], he was like oh we can lower it to 520. I swear, I can not trust people at this Honda dealership. Oh yea, the reason why my car didnt start was because they didnt hook up the alternator?

If you wiggle your way into the footwell headfirst and look behind the clutch pedal, you can see where all the adjustments are. Unless there is something wrong with your current engagement point, I'd recommend not changing anything, it's awkward to work on and won't improve anything. Been there, won't go back.

I have the Exedy Hyper Clutch kit, and I couldn't be happier with it, except for city driving. It has lotts quicker enguagment point, and does not slip like the OEM did. hyun83 if you deciede to keep the Exedy, be sure you break it in properly or I have read on here that it will not last.

Ugotmade.....Does your clutch make that grinding noise in first gear? How do you break it in properly? It keeps on grinding in first gear like crazy.. How many more miles before the grinding noise stops?I cant even feather it........... I plan to take out the clutch and just sell it.. unless i get use to it.
