I tried out Cyn's clutch and it seems to be pretty good. Its lighter than OEM (to me).

You should message him.
Competition Clutch 11.5 lb flywheel, works great.. perfect for daily duty.
I've ran exedy on other cars and they've been amazing. I also had a stage 3 bully racing clutch. Definitely not good for daily but I somehow did it.
Competition Stage 4 and 8lb flywheel has been on my Built DD for a few years now. Still strong and grabs like no other. No clutch chatter and very smooth engagement.
thanks for the info guys! just looking for something better than oem not trying to build a race car or n e thing like that lol. maybe a stage 1 or 2 at the most, anybody running n e clutch/flywheel for rsx type s? seems to be a lil cheaper the clutch kits for our tsxs
I had my competition stage 4 on my car when I only had an CAI and Header. Don't mind the stages.. always look at the design. Mine is a 6 puck and to me feels better than 3 puck and disk type clutches.
I have a rsx-s flywheel and exedy sage 1 clutch. Easy to drive, wont kill your foot in traffic.. grips nice, and is cost effective

Same. Got a jdm dc5 flywheel. I got mine off autofair honda.
Nice and light, perfect for daily purposes.

Also have the dc5 flywheel with the exedy stage 1 kit. However my exedy clutch plate after a year shows a lot of wear n tear. Don't know if that was due to my motor rebuild or how aggresively I release my clutch. But overall its a great daily setup.
I am doing an Exedy stage 1 but mine is my DD and I only have boltons.

nice thats sounds like a set up i might do, so u have a stage 1 exedy for a tsx or rsx type s? and is that a oem rsx type s flywheel?
This is the setup I went with:



Act Streetlite Flywheel Honda Civic 2002 2007 Acura RSX Type s 2002 '06 600295 | eBay

I was already looking at the Exedy + F1 flywheel but I decided to go with a trusted brand, such as Act. Thus I went with the Streetlite Flywheel. The thing about clutch is that you do not need to change them out frequently like oil changes so cheaping out on parts isn't really saving you money.
Exedy Stg 1 clutch and lightweight flywheel (8.9 lbs).. A little light but definitely daily drivable... The clutch is awesome, a little heavier pedal pressure but great grabbing strength.
I went through 2 Exedy stage 2 clutches both around 25k miles.. I never touched Exedy again after that.

damm r u serious???
For people who go the DC5 flywheel route, does it HAVE to be the OEM Type S flyhweel or can it be a new flywheel that is labeled as being for any DC5?

After that, does it still require a DC5 clutch/pressure plate or can I just get that for a TSX or is it all the same? I'm a little confused on this...
