I don't run them now but when I was 17 I did a swap in my old civic and put a fidanza ceramic clutch coupled with their lightweight flywheel... It hooked up very nicely. Then again, at the time car had like 165 horsepower at the crank, so I would expect any "performance" clutch/flywheel combo to hook up nicely at that horsepower as long as you werent a fan of intentionally burning the clutch out.

I installed the stage 1 SR clutch in my brothers S14 and it slipped! After talking to Fidanza they told me it was only rated to 210ft-lbs!!! This made no sense since the factory unit is rated for more. Nevertheless I would stay away from the stage 1. I cant comment on the stage 2 or 3 units.

HOWEVER, I had one installed in my h22a accord and it worked completely fine.
