1992 civic. is it standard to have flywheel resurfaced and rear oil seal replaced when changing the clutch and pressure plate? cat is a 1.6 with turbo. what clutch is best for street? stage 1 2 or 3??

 

Yes it is reccomended to have it resurfaced or replaced. Is the seal leaking? If not, just go by your mileage. If it is high. Then you might as well since it is apart. Depends on the clutch manufacturer. How much power you puttin down? You want a sprung or unsprung disc?

 

its a stock 1.6 with a breedy turbo. according to the dyno sheet it makes 190h.p. at 6 thousand r.p.m i don't plan on hammering it to pieces and i don't want muscle spasms in my leg at red lights either however i don't want to change it in 6 months because of cheap parts. i'm new to these cars and i appreciate any help.

 

Exedy OEM replacement will be fine for <200whp and can be had off ebay for cheap.

Resurfacing or replacing the flywheel is recommended but not necessarily a must. I know from experience.

 

yes resurface it and just change the damn seal its $10 brand new from honda.....its worth the piece of mind not to have to pull the tranny again. esp. since you were just in there.

 

+10000000

why the hell would you not change the seal? is anyone really that cheap? might want to think about a lighter flywheel too while ur there...

 

is there anyplace in the tampa area i can get one of those clutch packs? other then e bay?

 

AE sells combos, but they're pretty pricey.

Clutch City Online - Exedy, LuK, Valeo, Sachs (OEM and Racing Clutch Kits) (located in largo) sells both flywheels and clutches, thats where i get my clutches...

ive heard a lot of people talk about baycityclutches, but ive never dealt with them, and i dont know if they to flywheels or not

call around, im sure you could find a deal somewhere close.

 

go to clutch city.....right parts, right price, they can resurface your flywheel while you wait.....the guys really nice and he knows hondas too...cant beat it.

 

well bought every thing from bay city clutch...new flywheel new pilot bearing new clutch pressure plate and throw out bearing and like a fool i take it to the local garage and 375.00 later there having trouble adjusting the dam thing. had to leave it an extra day because the clutch is grabbing right on the floor.
