XClutch 1997 Acura CL Premium 2.2L Stage 1 Steel Backed Organic Clutch Kit

If you're looking to replace the clutch in your 1990-2002 Honda Accord or 1997-1999 Acura CL, this Stage 1 kit from XClutch is a solid option. It's designed to handle more torque than a stock clutch while still feeling comfortable for daily driving, making it a great choice if you do higher RPM launches or just want a more robust clutch for your street vehicle.

This kit uses an organic friction material that's bonded to a steel backing disc. That steel backing adds extra strength, which helps prevent the disc from bursting under high stress. The pressure plate in this kit has an updated diaphragm design that increases clamping force, giving you a more positive pedal feel and ensuring the clutch engages firmly. XClutch has over 30 years of experience in clutch development, and they test their parts thoroughly to balance performance with everyday usability.

This kit includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, release bearing, pilot bearing, and an alignment tool, so you'll have most of what you need for the installation. It's a well-built upgrade for those who want improved clutch performance without sacrificing street driveability.
