So my 1995 240's clutch is pretty much gone, between the old owner and me getting back into the feel of a manual, it's about time to kiss the old one goodbye.

I still wasn't really planning on swapping the motor too soon (118k miles on it, might as well get some mileage out of it) and was wondering if I should upgrade to something with a little more bite or just get another OEM? Thanks!

Upgrade while you can. I would go with a stage 2 have always liked the feel even in my bone stock KA.

shortly after I bought my 93 the clutch started to go. Back then (about three years ago) I opted for an exedy OEM clutch and it is still holding up really well for about $100. Once it goes though I will definitely upgrade to a stage two but stick with exedy. Don't forget to get the fly wheel resurfaced if you're not going to replace it. GL

IMO it depends ..if you are going to add performance upgrades to the ka then upgrade. if you are just going to dd it until you do a motor swap no point in wasting an extra few hundred .. but thats just what i would do lol
