Clutch, flywheel. Final drive

[wocka]

Hi guys, im having trouble with my gears now, not smooth anymore and especially 1st to 2nd

I tried adjusting my clutch pedal today with no luck, just made it worse to drive

So ive decided to go for a new clutch and flywheel, had a look on tegiwa's site and saw the rpc stuff they sell, the stage 1 clutch and lightweight flywheel are a good price so wondered if anyone on here had used them or any other suggestions to what to get

Then i thought if im doing that and box it out i may aswel doing 5.1 final drive but thats a big cost on top, all 3 together from tegiwa are £798

OEM Clutch everytime unless you're running +300bhp

Which im not.....

I'm probably going to get new clutch next year and I'm hoping to be running 300+

Thanks dude, so ep3 and fn2 clutch is the same will get one on order and then find a decent flywheel to match it

dc5 std flywheel is already lighter than an ep3 so just keep it

Yeah it's the same part mate. The part code is: 22105-PRA-305. I had my flywheel changed, TGM supplied a ACT Prolite flywheel when I had mine replaced, which is slightly lighter than the standard item.

Think im going to go for the rpc flywheel from tegiwa because its single peice

People are running the RPC clutches in the Civic Cup and from what I can gather they are holding up just fine so I'd guess at them being decent clutches.

I'm with you on the flywheel though, The RPC one sounds good being a single piece, I know Tegiwa also sell another flywheel which is slightly lighter, but it is 2 piece and to me, that is something to go wrong...

I think my next clutch will be a US Spec Exedy Stage 1... Slight upgrade from stock but should be good for everyday.

For most peoples needs OEM shall be perfect.

I'm running the Exedy stage 1 organic clutch and RPC flywheel and have to say I'm liking the setup.

Bit of a chew on at low Rev pulling from standstill (smell of clutch burn) but that might be down to other things with my setup
