Okay, I'm _REALLY_ cheap and Need a clutch for my project car.. 1990 240 five speed. I'd like the VERY best thing I can get for the least amount, so give input. Least amount doens't mean 10$ or 50$, just the cheapest thing thats GOOD. (IE, I'm willing to spend about 200$ or maybe more, but that depends.)

Suggestions?

think your gonna spend a lil over 250 ... i could be wrong .. but i remember when i was trying to get me a good cheap clutch for my civic .. and i spend like 300 ... was a good clutch tho .. but if ur looking for something that can handle some good boost .. then its gonna cost .. and honestly ur better off spending the extra cash in the long run .. cuz if u find a cheap one and it doesnt last then ur looking at downtime and as im experiancing right now .. it sucks not having my car .. :(

centerforce dual friction clutch. iirc, it'll hold somewhere around 280ft-lbs of torque.

I went with the ACT Street HDSS. Highly recommended and seems to be in a lot of 240's. I think I got the whole kit for $367. A friend of mine races Honda Challenge and is very happy with it in his Hybrid Civic.

Would this happen to be a good clutch for a good price? Just something I found.

Others have been a LOT more:

I ordered an ACT Street HDSS from JGY Customs. That's where I got my hot fire. A little expensive but I'm sure you can find way better deals on ebay or the forums.
