I mistakenly bought a clutch for my 89 crx si that I was told would work, but once arrived, I found out it was for 90-91 models (212mm disk vs. 200mm in mine). I was wondering if I could just get a disk that was made for mine and use the pressure plate and throwout bearing that I currently have since the only thing I can see wrong is the larger disk. BTW, the clutch I got is an Exedy stock type one. Not what I wanted as I was told it was something else but since I have it and need the clutch replaced, I don't mind using it.
If that will work, are there any recommendations for putting a better than stock disk in? Would that hold better even with a stock pp?

Thanks.

 

well for starters. anytime you have your tranny and clutch assembly off you should replace all the bearings considering they are only about 6$ total and will save u 300$ tranny labor job. 2ndly that larger disk will work but youd need the larger flywheel... as long as it 20 spline it will fit, Anyone who tries to sell u a "beefier" stock clutch is full of ----, they are worthless and arent going to hold power, So if you need a performance clutch kit, hit me up and maybe i can help you out
good luck with that clutch, pm me if you have any questions

 

What bearings are you referring to? I got a clutch kit that has the throwout bearing. If the clutch I got will work with a 90-91 flywheel, sweet, I just need a flywheel. Thanks for the help. I will probably need a better clutch setup after I can afford to turbo, but mine is bad now and I had gotten this one to get me by.

 

pilot bearing...yeah 88 Turbo Crx has some good clutches man...I got one from him...

 

thanks semnos, yea pilot bearing for sure and throwout bearing too if you can get it, but since u got that already all u need is the pilot if possible. Yes you just need a flywheel
good luck man

I'll have to check and see if a pilot bearing came with the kit. If not, where would the best place be to get one? Autozone or Honda dealer? Thanks guys.

 

just goto Honda, let me know if you need a bigger flywheel, we've probably got one lying around. 90+ will work. Be thankful you don't have an 88 with the ***** spline count
