i have a 97 gsr with light mods aem intake thermal exahuast and my clutch is starting to wear. i want to upgrade can anyone recommend the best brand and type.

 

ACT HDSS is perfect for you...I've had mine for quite a while.

 

also what does the diffrent stages mean? thnx

 

agreed, and a lighter flywheel is always a nice add!

 

There is no set definition on stages. The higher up the stage will give you an idea of how stiff the clutch is, what shape the clutch disk is, and what the clutch disk is made out of. Personally, I think rating clutches in stages is retarded. What you should be concerned with is the clamping capacity of the clutch if whether that will work with your setup.

The HDSS is a great clutch and is rated for 243 ft/lbs of torque holding capacity. That will give you plenty of clamping force with a slightly increased pedal effort and the smooth engagement of a full surface street disk.

 

i have the exedy "stage 1" which i pretty much a stock replacement clutch with 9 lb flywheel which is a nice setup IMO

 

same here brother!!!

 

good luck picking one out jeremy

 

I recently bought the ACT HDSS and a Fidanza 7.5lb flywheel along with a skunk2 short shifter. as soon as I get it installed i'll let you know what i think
