spudley1988 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Hey folks, on my mb6 i apparently have an exedy stage 2 clutch and lightened flywheel, no proof bar a piece of paper. If it has ive never been in a standard mb6 to compare but to me revs etc dont go up as fast as id expect for stage 2 unless standard these are awful? I went on the strip with my mates corolla t-sport and their was no difference between us to shout about maybe marginaly favour towards him. However my release bearing etc noisy so changing whole clutch so just went with honda oem after chat with lad at h tune and for budget as well. Would their be much difference between the two if their even is an uprated one within mine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 The clutch itself will never make a car faster. The lightened flywheel - i highly doubt you'd ever see a noticeable difference. Only really on "free revving" and perhaps a very slight increase in acceleration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 As Grant said, those parts add no BHP. Lightened flywheel you may struggle to accelerate up hill as quickly as the standard one, but I think it would need to be significantly lighter.

spudley1988 Posted September 24, 2015 Author Share Posted September 24, 2015 I've no proof of it being lightened or a different clutch just wasnt sure if id notice any difference if a stage 2 was in compared to oem one. As i say this is my first b series but to me just revs how id expect a standard one to rev lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 You'll be able to tell when you remove the 'box mate.. Fidanza (or the like) flywheels will be shiney and gappy lol .. Stage 2 clutch is generally unneeded. OEM FTW - unless your going boost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HONDACIVIC Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 I think the gear changes will be quicker with a stage 2 clutch and may launch better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll just handle more power and torque. Unless it's a magical clutch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudley1988 Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 OEM its going to be, not going boost on mb sadly, im actually closer to maybe a mk4 golf with the 180bh turbo model 6 speed. Kinda losing the love for honda atm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
