This thread is kind of funny in that, when you asked what kind of clutch people recommended, many recommended the OEM. Granted, the "pedal feel" is too light for your taste, but the OEM clamping power is strong enough to handle your bolt-on mods and it is a proven design. But now you seem to be in the position of just ordering anything as long as it's in stock!
"In Stock" doesn't seem like a sound basis upon which to base your decision.
Good luck in your search.
To me there is nothing funny about this thread!
and Yes, you are 100% right as to the fact that at this point I am "almost" willing to order anything just simply because it is in stock. But why is that so absurd? I'm the one with an NSX in the garage that cannot be driven! And no one seems to have the required part to put my car back on the road.
As far as Tilton, I took "NSX 3.0" advice and called John @ Acura at Brookfield in Wi. to order his Comptech clutches but they were defective. But while on the phone with him the Tilton clutch came up. He said that while the price is high it is by far the lightest assembly on the market and that I would NEVER EVER have to replace my clutch assembly again. He said he races them in his GT2 cars and has never burned one up and even if it does that you can shim it and get back down the road. So, for boosted applications and longevity the Tilton is the way to go in his opinion.
One thing I point I have not pressed on this thread is the fact that I don't want a heavy flywheel again. This is much more important to me than pedal feel, I like the fact that my cars revs faster and more easlily than stock. I should have stressed this more in the beginning of this thread maybe because even tho I didn't type it, it was/is on my mind. Also, I just really have a problem with what seems like going backwards with the mods on my car. I don't understand why that is so hard for some of you to understand. To me its the same as going outside and putting my stock intake and exhaust back on! and thats not going to happen either!
As far as SC or turbocharging the car, it is a possibility in the near future so that has been a consideration in the clutch purchase. So all my locals friends have been pushing me to get a strong clutch because they want me to boost the car, thats another reason for my resistance with the OEM.
1) Too light pedal feel
2) Heavy flywheel again
3) may boost soon
Sorry for this long explanation, but it did not seem that I was taking the time to explain myself properly and in return I was not getting the much needed help I was asking for without a healthy dose of sarcasm that I can do without.
And Yes it does seem as if I have been beaten, so yesterday I did check on a stock clutch, sux, but you have to admit I fought it to the end! LOL !
