Competition Clutch 02-06 RSX Type-S / 06-11 Civic Si Stage 1.5 Clutch Kit Reviews

This is one of your best choices for full bolt ons! Great and strong grabbing point!

Great product! Great shipping service as well. Broke the clutch uth in after 300-500 miles and I couldn

I have about 300 more miles until the clutch is broken in and I can

I had it installed for about 5 months, 500 mile break in just to be safe... spring broke yesterday. Was good while it lasted wont be buying again though.

After the break in .i took my car out for some pulls. Catches pretty damn good for my set up. Catches really low ,just the way i like it. Only down side is the chatter from the flywheel. Sounds like my engine is low on oil lmao but other than that its no bad to daily either.

I installed this clutch kit when I did the 6 speed transmission swap in my EP3. It's a great clutch kit, especially with the 11 pound flywheel. Pedal was stiff at first, but after the break in period it has softened up quite a bit. It grabs well enough for me to snap an axle in half in a month. Drives very similar to stock with only needing slightly more throttle with the flywheel. Definitely recommend it for stock power levels as a nice upgrade.

I upgraded from a stock clutch that was going pretty hard. I had my flywheel resurfaced and had everything installed by a friend. At first, holy grip. The clutch was biting so hard and it was a little hard to get used to. Slowly after the break in and readjustment of the pedal, the pedal feels just like stock. The only difference I see is that the pedal is much stiffer, but it is soooo worth it. I have an intake, headers and an exhaust and this clutch works just fine.

Daily driver with some mods and this clutch is a beast. Very strong and the 8 lb flywheel makes a huge difference. Takes a little getting used to!

I put this clutch and flywheel in a customers car it feels great and they are happy as can be with it...lite bolt on 07 SI coupe

When I drove my car out of the parking after my new clutch and flywheel was installed, I had that holy $&@! moment. I had never felt my clutch grab so hard before. The clutch engages much sooner and my car now takes less time to rev. It's only been about about 2k miles since the install and the clutch ALMOST feels like stock again, but it's still better than before. I guess I just had higher expectations going into it. I read another review about purchasing a stage 2 clutch next time. I think I will be doing the same when this one wears out. Like I said in the beginning though, I am still happy with the upgrade. I just hope the clutch lasts for at least 30k+ miles.

I installed this combo 3yrs ago. I don't race as my car is a daily driver however I have taken the car out for some more "spirited" driving. Nothing too crazy tho. I got this expecting equal or better wear than oem plus the lighter flywheel made driving more fun. Sad to say I am experiencing slip after 35k miles. Revs are above normal in each gear if pressed too hard. I'm going to replace with the Stage 2 disc this Christmas and see if that lasts longer.

I daily my car about 70 miles a day so you can imagine my clutch got broke in pretty quick but about 3 weeks into it my Clutch master cylinder went out and I changed it to the OMNI cmc. I've had everything running for 3 days now and only almost stalled out twice. Its a great combo and i love it !

Don't buy OEM. Don't buy anything else but this set up or one with a higher stage. The clutch grips like mad and the fly wheel puts the balls to the ground. I wasn't expecting these results but my neck really hurts and I think repair dude(can't remember how to spell the correct term) nearly crapped him self my car too off that hard. RPM's stay up where you want them and its just amazing how much more power you get from the 8lb flywheel. Not actually power but more whp than before.

the clutch and fly wheel were great! i loved the change they made to the preformence. but after about 600 miles i totaled my rsx so i didint really get to play with it as i was still babying it to break it in. but you could def tell the diffrence in the take off. would recomend to any rsx owner that wants to keep a stock feeling clutch that also has a staged Grab to it.

I love the feel in combination with my new master cylinder. It has a lot of grab and not too stressful on my legs. The package is great, everything is ready to go and installation was fairly simple.

My stock clutch went out at 147,000 miles. I needed a quick replacement and decided might as well go up a higher stage to support any modifications in the future. I daily drive my car, and the 1.5 is just right. It's a bit stiffer and there's more spring letting off, but it's not that much different from stock at all. Temperature does effect this clutch. I've noticed , compared to my stock clutch, that the 1.5 CC has a low grab during cold temperature and has a stiff grab during warm.

I agree with all of the positive reviews below. Its close to stock but has a lot more grip. Chirping into 2nd is no problem at all. Engagement point is way lower, but I got used to it quickly. The lightweight flywheel is noticeable, but I don't know how much faster it actually is. It decelerates a lot faster. I have 2000 miles on it, love it so far. After finding a local CRSX installer on here it was WAY cheaper than a new OEM clutch (that sucks anyways). The parts seemed very high quality when I took them out of the box

perfect clutch for my acura rsx type s' thank u clubrsx

Clutch grabs decently hard when first installed. After about 1k mile break-in period, it grabs a little harder than stock. Nice feel to it paired with the Ultra Light Weight flywheel and Rev's quicker as well. Only complaints: My flywheel makes a metal on metal grinding noise when between 1-3500 rpm's, not a problem what-so-ever. I believe it's the clutch springs vibrating and resonating through the holes of the clutch disc. Because of the lightness of the flywheel, idling in first gear is not possible anymore in traffic. Other than that, great combo!

The stock clutch on my 02 RSX-S started slipping recently, and I don't really drive the car that hard. So after doing some research on ClubRSX I find a lot of guys saying the stock clutch is inadequate even for a no-mod or basic mod car. My car only had cold air intake & cat-back exhaust (installed by previous owner). Went w/ the 1.5 w/ lightweight flywheel & now sitting about 600 miles, it drives fantastic! Definitely putting down more horses, & after about 200miles the pedal stiffness wore off. I waited until about 400 miles to start getting on it, but even then I haven't launched it yet. Anyhow, Great value, glad I made this choice. Thanks CRSX!!!

Extremely happy with this purchase. The clutch is very quick to grab and my take offs have been easier than ever. The flywheel has also helped my acceleration a decent amount; the cars seems to rev up a bit faster now. I have no complaints for this product, it is top quality and I recommend to anyone for a daily driver or lightly modified vehicle.

After reading and researching a clutch for my 03 Type-S, I found that the CC 1.5 sounded like a viable option. I decided to go ahead and get the 11.5 flywheel also and not stick to the stock RSX-S one. Installation was straight forward and took about 5 hours. Clutch does grab nicely and response is great. I Needed to get familiar with the clutch and it's release point. Definitely not the same as stock release point, but after driving it for an hour, i got used to it. I've put over 1000 miles on the clutch already and have nothing but good things to say about it. My 03 Type-S is Daily Driven. Not a show car by any means. I needed something reliable and after reading many reviews, now having it, I am happy with my purchase!

the flywheel is really nice, allows the car to pick up noticeably quicker, even during normal cruising. the clutch grabs nice and hard, some chatter, but very tolerable.

I'm very happy with this clutch it grabs just the way I want it for my daily driver.

Great shipping (able to track shipment through FedEx website). I planned and prepped for the install for a couple weeks to make sure I had everything that I needed. Install was smooth, perfect replacement for the worn out stock clutch. Awesome service.

After reading several reviews that mentioned killing the car when they got the lightweight flywheel I was a little concerned. Maybe they just didn't know how to drive. I have had no problems with driveability, although my wife did kill it twice when I took her on a familiarization drive. This thing just hooks up and goes, just give it a bit more gas than with the stock clutch. If you shift carefully, modulating the gas and clutch pedal, you can do it very smoothly even with pretty good acceleration. If you want to really nail it you're up to the rev limiter before you know it. I haven't noticed any stiffness compared to stock. I like it, just hope it doesn't cost me too much in tires. I gave it a 4 because I don't know what a 5 would be unless it was magic.

I got the Competition Clutch stage 1.5 kit and flywheel combo to replace an Exedy stage 1 with stock flywheel setup. The engagement point is the same as far as I can tell, and the feel is about the same as well which is fine by me. Great kit for a great price. A special thanks to the folks at Club RSX as well. I ordered this product on a Friday morning and got a call from them stating that the flywheel was on backorder and would be a couple of weeks. This was no biggie to me as my RSX-S is basically a weekend toy at this point. Nevertheless, I was very pleasantly surprised to have the clutch and flywheel arrive on Monday afternoon.

Installed this setup on my TSX a month ago and I am amazed how aggressive it is. The car pulls alot harder And revs way faster! Definitely the best clutch company I've yet to use and will recommend this setup to anyone with basic bolt ons and to any daily/ free spirited drivers

Very nice clutch for the price. Pedal feels very close to stock after you adjust the screw in the back. Much better grab over stock clutch. Perfect setup with my Wavetrac for a low horsepower NA Type-s. Can't wait to break it in and hit the track!

A+++++++++++ like this very much

This clutch is amazing, way better than oem

Got the competition stage 1.5 combo back in Dec. First though was that the flywheel spins a lot faster and I stalled multiple times but got used to it in day 2. Oem feel and smooth shifting even in high rpm. 1st and 2nd gear pick up so fast that I would get a great deal of wheel spin. Over all I am very pleased with my purchase. Injen cai, rbc, kiddsracing header, greddy evo2, esmm, buddy club n+, kpro'd and dyno tuned

i jus got this combo put in 3 days ago, and ill tell you, if your a decent driver the 8lb fly is no prob. maybe a lil chatter if you have motor mounts. the flywheel is the most difference from stock, revs faster, better response all around, the clutch grabs pretty good for a stage 1 but i havent been able to do full potential yet since i have only 150 miles on it. i got this paired with the omni power clutch master cylinder n brand new oem slave also n wow does it feel good!! a lil stiff but much improved from stock!! get this n you will be very happy, especially for the price!!

Had a transmisson shop install one about a month ago. The guy could tell it was nicer than oem. Man it had a bite on it :) Don't forget to adjust the clutch pedal!

Had both the clutch and flywheel installed a week ago, finally got it broken in and it runs great! Clutch pedal is a little stiffer but it didn't take long to get used to. Revs climb noticeably faster with the lightweight flywheel. This combo is definitely worth getting if you're going with basic bolt-ons!

I emailed Chris Dye, about whether or not I should get a Exedy Organic clutch combo with a ACT Streetlite Flywheel and he responded rather quickly telling me that he tried that combo and did not like it as much as this Competition Clutch and Flywheel Combo. It drives and pulls great for a everyday driver! Revs quick! Pulls hard! Great Recommendation Chris! Thanks

1.5 stage with 8lb flywheel from cc is unbeatable. My stock clutch was taking 4k rpm to start at 1st gear xD. I decided to get this clutch combo. After breaking it in, feels like stock clutch. catches on really tight, more than I expected. Thank you CRSX for fast shipping even when I ordered it while out of stock.

My OEM clutch was slipping beyond comprehension. I needed To replace it bad and this was a great purchase. After break in it has almost stock pedal feel and grabs harder than I've ever felt! I love the clutch and flywheel combo. Shipping was fast and service from CRSX was awesome.

ClubRSX was great, delivering the combo within a couple days. The clutch is a bit stiffer than stock but did not take much to get use to. Had to adjust the clutch pedal a bit higher but no complaints.

Competition is a great company and everyone around me has always went to them for the clutch needs. I am very happy with the performance. It was a lot stiffer than stock, but it didn't take long to get use to. The best part about this whole transaction was that I was in between a rock and a hard place because it was a holiday weekend and my car was not working so I needed this part right away! They were able to get the part to me the next day by 10 am. I wish I didn't have to pay for that shipping, lol but oh well. None the less, Chris and Brian are always a great help!

Very happy with the CC stage 1.5 clutch + 8lb flywheel combo. It's my daily driver, so I was concerned about drivability. The flywheel took a little getting used to at first, but once the clutch was broken in and I was used to the flywheel, I'd honestly say it's as easy as, if not easier than, stock.

Clutch grabs pretty hard for a stg1. Definantly a difference in rev speed with the flywheel. My car now spins the tires all the way through first just by punching at around 3k rpms. Top end is a lot better compared to before. Very very streeable pedal feel. Almost easier than stock. But don't let that fool you. You let the pedal out and your going, and quickly at that

I bought this clutch and installed it with a fresh transmission rebuild back in aug 09. It is nov 09 and I have put about 6,000+ miles on the set up (also installed a F1 racing ebay 10lb flywheel) and the clutch feels great. I drive my car daily back and forth from school with some spirited diving and the clutch takes its very well. I don't do much racing just the occasional beating. Could not ask for more on the pedal feel and engagement. Can't be beat for the price!

great product great price pulls hard and revs fast. every time you start from 1st gear it feels like its trying to rip your trans out of your car. ok first if your a DIY'er be ready theres alot to remove, took me like 7 hours start to finish(first time doing a clutch and flywheel). second after the install i put the car in 1st with the e-brake on, and started letting the clutch pedal out to see where it would engage about a 1/2 inch later the car jumped over a foot. first thought holy sh$t!! second was damn now i got to relearn to drive this thing.

An upgrade to the stock clutch which is inexpensive and not overly-agressive, but able to handle modest upgrades. It also feels "heavy duty" compared to the stock clutch. Would definately purchase again, although I doubt if i will ever need to.

Iv recently installed this with a ITR Flywheel and I LOVE IT. Smooth as silk, great combo for basic bolt on's. Great high rev grip. No chatter (so far) And the clutch is a tiny bit stiffer then stock, but much better then my old setup. Def great alternative for OEM, not to mention will hold up better. Comes with everything you need! Cant beat it!
