i changed from b16a (ek4) clutch to b16b (ek9) clutch, then it feels better a bit ler...not sure whether they are really physically different or it's just "psychological" ler...heheh..anyway, b16b clutch available from exceptional auto at subang jaya...forgot how much hafta check the receipt back, but definetely cheaper than exedy organic cause i was comparing between the 2 of 'em last time...oh yeah, while u're doing your clutch, why not change to lighter flywheel sekali...if u havent done it yet ler...

Clutch difference

You could try the EK9 clutch set as you use it for the daily grind to work. It grips better than the stock B16A ones as there is a diference in pressure plate size. The stock B16A pressure plates should be around 8.3 inches in diameter whereas the EK9 pressure plate is 9 inches in diameter. Thus the gripping would be must better than the stock but slightly below the exedy 3 puck ones.

I have just only changed my exedy clutch set to the Ek9 ones, wanted to go back for the exedys but the thought of really fast wearing on those exedy's made me change my mind and I decided to try out the EK9 clutch set. And yes, the feel would be "lighter" if compared with the exedy ones.

Just my 2 cents.

oh, btw the EK9 clutch set can be bought for about RM750.

darkfibre,
i believe you didnt mention what sort of gearbox you are having at the moment.
yes, the price may differ from small vtec(cable) and big vtec(cable/hydraulic) gearbox for exedy.

exceptional at SS14 is just a walk-in shop like Lin Hup Seng, they dont do mechanic works i reckoned.

if you want to get a good deal, prolly u can try N1 or AMOIL(JC) to fix it on the spot. buy and siap-pasang combo.
