Buy an OEM...you really don't need a stage 3 ceramic clutch!

It's magic! Pay close attention when they wave the wand and let us know how they impart the torques. Then tell us.

Didn't you know it had rockets attached to the pucks to add more lbs/ft?

I bet they sell piston return springs as well.

As far as the XTD clutch goes, a search on here yields nobody who has tried one. Not sure I'd want to be the first...

...not forgetting Hendy performance do a deal on clutch kits too. Plus someone recently had a supply and fit from TGM for about £600 all in which I think is pretty good value.

I am confused at why an S2000 clutch should cost so much. I bought a decent cossie one the other day. Capable of 280lbs/ft. Cost £150.

Infact I am willing to bet that if you swapped to a Prelude flywheel, you'd have no issue in using a Prelude clutch.

Afterall, the F is based on the H.

Bolt pattern matches, it'd all be down to the diameter of the flywheel.

Rest assured, retailer are out to con you and they are charging you S2000 tax.

My cousin went for a tour round K&N factory the other month and for what you pay £200 for costs them about £5
