Is the four puck EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch good for the street?

It is workable but harsh. Four pucks engage abruptly and can chatter on gentle starts, which the lightweight flywheel makes more noticeable. A K-series car used daily is better on the thick-disc 08951FW, which shares the same flywheel and torque ratings.

Does the four puck kit need a tune?

Turn 14 notes that the 08951P4FW requires tuning or an ECU flash for use, the same as the thick-disc version. The HF02 lightweight flywheel changes crankshaft behaviour that the factory calibration monitors, so the tune belongs in the installation plan.

Which cars does the four puck kit fit?

The same K-series cars as the thick-disc kit. EXEDY USA lists this EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch for the RSX base and the Civic Si, and Turn 14 adds the RSX Type-S, the 2004-2008 TSX, the four-cylinder 2003-2007 Accord and the 2002-2005 and 2012-2015 Civic Si.

How much power will the four puck clutch hold?

EXEDY rates the 08951P4FW at 280 lb-ft of torque capacity at the flywheel and 224 lb-ft at the wheels, with 361 lb-ft of clutch torque on a 215 mm disc. That covers a naturally aspirated race K-series or a turbo car on modest boost.

Will a puck disc wear the HF02 flywheel faster?

Puck discs concentrate clamp load on a smaller area, so they can mark the flywheel face more than a full disc, especially with repeated launches. Resurfacing the HF02 at each clutch service keeps engagement even and protects the new disc from hot spots.

Description

EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch and Flywheel Kit for DC5 Acura RSX and TSX, Honda Accord and Civic Si (4 Puck Disc)

EXEDY’s Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch and Flywheel Kit for DC5 Acura RSX and TSX, Honda Accord and Civic Si with the four-puck disc is the hard-hitting version of EXEDY’s K-series flywheel kit. Four cerametallic pucks and the HF02 lightweight flywheel give the K20 and K24 a quick-revving, fast-engaging drivetrain aimed at drag launches and track sessions more than commuting.

Design and Performance

The four-puck disc concentrates its cerametallic facing on separate pads, which cuts rotating mass and gives a quick, abrupt bite. It rides on a 24-tooth, 26.0 mm spline, rated at 361 lb-ft of clutch torque by EXEDY, and the HF02 conversion flywheel is in the box. Ratings at the flywheel and wheels match the thick-disc 08951FW.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
