Where can i source one in the uk at a good price? Everywhere i look its for a complete clutch or from the states
That's the only downside. The price has increased massively in the last couple of years. Got mine from s2k tuning off here. £375 from memory. The rest of the oem bits I got off hendy. The oem release bearing is also pricy but someone off here used the one that came with the completion clutch kit from memory and it fell apart. Think I paid circa 560 for everything in the end.

I replaced my clutch yesterday (DIY'd it); went genuine Honda clutch this time and it's perfect (from Tegiwa)
clutch judder could be a number of things, but ime a flywheel skim sorts it.

£375 without pilot bearing seems a good price.
I got the bearing from a local bearing shop for £10 (£22 from Honda) - bearing number 6904 2RS came out, 6904 4RS went back in.
Flywheel skim was £70.
8-9hour ramp rental so about £130 for that

£585 all in and i know it's done right.

I went for a cheap clutch last time and would not go with another one; lasted 30k city driving & 1.5 track days, but it's never been right; get any amount of heat in it, and it just fell over.

Engine damper to replace a clutch? I dunno, sounds a bit odd to me......
