I thought the FLywheels on the OEM clutch do not last that long....This is what I have heard and read....Pretty much what I am saying is that it is not strong enough....PLEASE correct me if I am wrong on this one cause i am too sure just wanted to put that out there!!!

MY Honda tech tells me that the OEM or Exedy is about all you need for a basic clutch kit. The labor is based on 8 hours total time at the dealership. Some will charge for less. Independent shops can do it for less because they have a different overhead. SHop around-but find a reputable import oriented garage.
