Stage 5 - Strip Series
This assembly, available with a rigid plate is good for penetrating engagement with higher horsepower applications. This disc complimented by a performance pressure plate provides 300% increase in torque capacity.

The 0420 Series kit includes a performance pressure plate, a four puck high torque rigid disc with Ceramic buttons, all applicable bearings, and the appropriate alignment tool.

This clutch is awesome. It grabs everything I can throw at it. It's kind of a pain in the ass in traffic b/c it's unsprung and engages very rigidly ... but for the purposes of holding power, it more than does it's job. I recommend this fail-safe clutch for any high hp/tq application. If you want a smoother engaging clutch, go with the sprung version.

I have the stage 4 sprung in my stock ka lol! I love it and it kicks the ass out easy. I had problems w/ frying clutches about a year ago so I went for the gusto. ;)

I had a competition stage 4 in my old SR and I loved it.....I dont remember if it was sprung or unsprung, but it grabbed hard as hell, and it took it in the ass whenever I wanted it to.

a buddy of mine had a stage 3 competition sprung clutch in his Rx7 and one of the springs shot out of the clutch and ruined his transmission. I wont buy one. Ive got a spec stage 3 and I havent had any problems. oh, and Unsprung clutches are a bitch to drive!!!!

lolol!
the pedal feel is completely gone.. its just a pedal, nothing more nothing less lol.

i'll get it replaced soon though..

possibly something with alot of holding capacity, doesnt really matter since this wont be my dailydriver.

I have a Competition clutch stage 3 in mine and I love it. Will sometimes chatter in stop n go but for my DD it is awesome. Although I***8217;m still running stock boost (which will change soon) I have no fears upping the ante.

Edit: I had a ACT in my CRX and was one of the best clutches I've ever had. Would buy one from them in a heartbeat.
