Spec 02-06 Acura RSX 2.0L Stage 2+ Clutch Kit

This SPEC Stage 2+ clutch kit, part number SA313H, is built with a performance pressure plate that offers increased clamping force over stock. This is crucial for handling the higher torque loads that can come with engine modifications or more aggressive driving. The kit includes a performance clutch disc designed for a more positive engagement, a release bearing, and an alignment tool, making it a comprehensive package for upgrading your 2002-2006 Acura RSX's drivetrain. It's a well-built option for RSX owners looking for a clutch that can handle more power and provide a more direct feel.

The clutch disc in this kit features a sprung hub design, which helps to absorb some of the shock and vibration that can be transmitted through the drivetrain, offering a balance between performance and daily drivability. This is a notable detail, as some high-performance clutches can be quite harsh. The pressure plate is forged for added strength, ensuring it can withstand the demands of a Stage 2+ application. When installing this clutch, it's important to ensure the flywheel is resurfaced or replaced to provide a clean and flat mating surface for the new clutch components. This helps prevent premature wear and ensures proper clutch operation.

This SPEC clutch kit is a solid choice for RSX owners who have made modifications to their engine and need a clutch that can reliably transfer that increased power to the wheels. It's designed to be a direct replacement for the factory clutch, simplifying the installation process. While it offers improved performance, it's still engineered to maintain a comfortable pedal feel for everyday driving, though some drivers may notice a slightly firmer pedal compared to the original equipment.
