Default Narrowed it down to one of two....

Don't bash on the selection please. Keep in mind these just have to get me by until Feb. so I can slap a bit more OEM back into it lol


I narrowed my search for a replace clutch kit to these two:

I vote for the second one because it cost more than the first one. I would never buy clutches at cheap price because as they say "You get what you pay for."

For the price of the second one you're really just paying for a pressure plate, that disk is utter garbage, the OEM one is better, I'd get one with a partial shroud around the hub springs. Also those bearings are worthless, there's a reason Honda charges nearly $100 for the clutch release bearing. OEM lasts 100,000+ miles if you drive with any sort of competence, just buy the parts a week at a time if your poor.

If you must go the Ebay clutch route get something decent at least:
