Clutch buss?
Hey, I have been having lots of vibration from the gear box on my 2001, I only have it on decell and it can be felt in the gear lever and clutch pedal. The noise is starting to make me crazy and I would like to get rid of it. So I was wondering if this is clutch buss or is it something worse? I have contacted Honda for price on a new clutch kit (clutch, pp, bearing) and they wanted 1400$ So is there somewhere else I can buy the parts needed for a clutch swap?

Yes, that is the infamous clutch buzz. You can buy from online sites like majestic honda, but I'm not sue if they ship to Norway (or at least affordably anyway). If your clutch isn't slipping yet, I would say try to deal with it until your clutch actually starts going out. The buzz isn't hurting anything except your ears.
Also, if you are even remotely planning on going forced induction in the future, go ahead and upgrade your pressure plate to an ACT heavy duty pressure plate (part number H021). Stick with OEM honda parts for everything else you replace (friction disc, throw out bearing & guide...). The ACT HD pressure plate upgrade with OEM friction disc should be able to hold most of your basic forced induction setups. I wish I had done this upgrade last year when I changed my clutch. Now that I am upping my boost I am going to have to pull the transmission out all over again!

Thanks for all the nice information!! Good to hear it wont ruin anything on the car. Im pretty sure I wont go boost in the near future so all OEM is good for me. I know majestic doesn't send to Norway, I can't even access their site
