naw it dosnt mater what stage it is.... hydrolic clutches all day keeps the tired leg away....honestly i have a stage two in the same type of car....the gass pedal in my dodge is harder to press then the clutch in my integra.....if anyone was wondering yes my dodge is a v-8 thank you...
@modsasuke Not for all, I have the "Stage 3" Exedy clutch and pressure plate for my GSX and its way harder to push and hold down. As for my 97 Accord I had a "Stage 2" with a lightened flywheel with no difference in clutch pressure.
Real slow throttle response if you ask me I don't think it was worth the money... and I just love the term "stage 2" sounds like something from Grand Turismo.... maybe a turbo would help... the light flywheel on a N/A motor seems like it would steal torque by taking away rotational mass.... it would make a healthy engine rev faster
curious question - i can understand the flywheel, but why a "stage 2 competition clutch" on a low torque integra? that just seems like youre straining your left leg (and wallet) for not much benefit.
competition clutch is the brand name of the clutch . I bought the stage 2 because since I was doing a lot of maintenance on my car at the time, I decided to switch at the same time and decided might as well do it up with something more benefit to me and stronger than the previous clutch. Competition Clutch's stage 2 clutch actually doesn't put strain on your leg when you press on the clutch =D
For example: Reducing 10 lbs of weight from parts that rotate at engine speed (crankshaft, flywheel, etc.) will have more benefits than reducing 10 lbs of weight from parts that rotate at axle speed (hub, rotor, wheel/tire, etc.) This somewhat relates to drivetrain loss, which most people are familiar with.
It is commonly recognized that eliminating weight from a vehicle will aid it's acceleration. Even greater gains in acceleration, or wheel horsepower, can be made by eliminating weight from rotating parts of the drivetrain and chassis. To even further complicate matters, there are more gains to be made in reducing certain areas of rotating mass than others.
It's good to see people putting in good info, Everyone has misconceptions about flywheels thinking they are going to make there car slower x.x Just remember if you put small wheels on a car it will make a big difference in torque and acceleration but you sacrifice top speed.
light weight flywheels add no horse they only decrease rotational mass and 0-60 is virtually the same. my 95 maxima could smoke your integra what are you puttin to the wheels?
well of course your maxima is gonna smoke me if it has a more powerful engine compared to my small 4 cylinder.
and 0-60 virtually the same? you answered your own question there buddy. decreased rotational mass = slightly increased acceleration which means the its not virtually the same i would think o.O
I like how everyones car is "better" and "faster". seek and you shall find...

@10eleven some mecanic friends explain the stage 1 clutch is almost the same a oem clutch so no difference between the oem and stage 1

yeah...when you have a test pipe in place of your catalytic converter, you tend to throw a CEL.
Does calling me a retard make you feel better? Let's see what kind of pile of junk you have.

hey man this is the exact setup i am looking at getting. How do you like it? did it help for 0-60 or 1/4 times that much?

aha, still enough gas for this small test =p
anyone else have any experience with this flywheel/clutch combo? Acceleration is better now in the lower gears to me
