Clutch feels like it's starting to go...

Thanks

I have the ACT HDSS with my SF kit and it holds up nicely. Pedal is easy to push down it just engages sooner.

BTW those prices on those links aren't the greatest. ^^^

How easy is the pedal to push down vs. stock??
I drive too damn much in traffic and don't wanna cramp up! lol
Also, do you think it'll last longer than a stock clutch?

yeah..after squeeezing for a year my clutch is now going away... I've lost about 4/10ths off my 1/4 mile time.
I run slower and now that I have traction I need a new clutch...NOW!!
So your saying go with the ACT HDSS overe the EXEDY clutch?

You really can't lose with either, they are both great clutches. Some people swear by ACT and others by Exedy. It's all based on experiences.

I'm working on getting a clutch from my man dober.
Here is the combo I'm looking at ACT HDSS and ACT Streetlite flywheel.

I talked to my friends and a couple of 'em have the same clutch on older civics and they said "you can't loose...with ACT thet make great clutches."

I agree with dober....

Different people have different opinions.
