i found that the centerforce is great for day to day driving but doesn't have the lunge of the Clutch Masters. I think the Act is supposed to be good also.

I think its the Centerforce Stage 3? or maybe its the Clutch Master Stage 3, i cant remember which one. But i was always told by a few different stores and people that it was the best for all around use (day to day & track use)

Its one of the two, but i'm sure there are probaly other good ones as well. Somone will more than likely mention it.

Theres a website that sells Flywheels with Clutchs as a package, that website is one of the places im thinking of that sells the clutch im talking about if anyone has the link.

keep in mind you can use a stock pressure plate w/ an after market disc
***i had a stock disc on a 6puck clutchnet i think (or clutchmaster) with an acura in the past*** felt great

i recommend for 200-350hp a sprung hub, 6 puck.

I have a Centerforce Dual Friction from a MX-6. It works great. It holds the power of the ze well, yet it's not too harsh of a ride for daily driving. You can also slip the clutch so that you can hold your possition on hills without rolling back. Supposedly has 90 percent holding capacity over stock. Don't remember where I saw that stat. Either http://www.nopi.com or http://www.summitracing.com . Summit has the better price on this particular clutch and they should have it in stock so you would get it in a few days.
sold it to a friend.93 green MX-3 with ZE swap. KL36 ecu, modified carbon fiber intake from a civic hatch. Centerforce Dual Friction clutch from MX-6. black Konig Minuz wheels, Synthetic fluids, 3 gauge pillar pod with air/fuel, water temp and oil press. Autometer Shiftlight. B&M short shifter. 2.25 piping with a Greddy SP1 muffler, AWR urethane front motormount, pheno spacers, Intrax Springs, Mazdaspeed Sideskirts. The New Ride is a 2003 1.8t a4

Clutchmasters Stage 2R, the only place you can get it from is RR-racing.com, It holds the ZE+nitrous quite well and feels exactly like stock except it grabs a little lower.

ACT IMO, but I've driven the Clutch Masters on a ZE and didn't really care for the feel. They both grab great, but the CM seems a bit weak in the pedal. I like a more sporty feel and now that my ACT is just over a year old the pedal is not so firm yet still sporty.

SPEC!

I suggest the Stage 2+ or Stage 3+ depending on your power level.

Cheaper and better than CM, holds more power than CF

Plus, it's built in the south so it's got to be better :)
