Will the EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch fit a 2012 Civic EX?

Yes, with a manual gearbox. Turn 14 lists the 08955 for the 2006-2015 Civic with the 1.8-liter R18, covering the DX, LX, LX-S, EX, EX-L and SE models. The kit uses a 215 mm disc and 20-tooth, 22.0 mm input spline.

How much power will the Civic 1.8L clutch hold?

EXEDY rates the 08955 at 259 lb-ft of torque capacity at the flywheel from 1,567 lb of clamp load on a 215 mm thick disc. That is well beyond a stock R18 and suits a turbocharged build on moderate boost or repeated autocross launches.

Does it fit the Civic Si?

No. The Civic Si of these years uses a K-series engine with a different clutch and spline. EXEDY covers the 2006-2011 Civic Si with the 08905 thin-disc kit and the 2012-2015 Civic Si with the 08951FW and 08951P4FW clutch and flywheel kits.

Why are some torque figures missing?

Turn 14 gives two conflicting values for the clutch torque and the wheel torque of the 08955, 207 and 345 lb-ft, so neither can be confirmed and neither is printed. The disc size, spline, clamp load and flywheel rating are consistent and are listed.

Is a cerametallic clutch a good idea on a daily driven Civic?

Only if the car is modified. The EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch grips quickly and can chatter on gentle starts, which the sprung hub reduces but does not remove. A stock or lightly modified commuter will be smoother on an organic clutch.

Description

EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch Kit for Honda Civic 1.8L (Thick Disc)

EXEDY’s Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch Kit for Honda Civic 1.8L fits the R18 Civics of 2006-2015, the eighth and ninth generation cars that many owners turbocharge or build for autocross. Its 215 mm thick cerametallic disc is rated at 259 lb-ft at the flywheel, several times what a stock R18 produces and a sensible margin for a boosted build.

Design and Performance

A ductile-cast cover applies 1,567 lb of clamp load to a 215 mm thick cerametallic disc on a 20-tooth, 22.0 mm spline. The thick disc holds more heat than a thin one, which helps with repeated autocross launches, and the sprung center damper keeps engagement from shocking the front-drive axles and engine mounts.

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.
