Default What clutch?

Ok, so I whave decided to replace my tranny (too much grinding in 3rd and 5th) and while I'm down there....a clutch (slipping now a bit)

So, I lack alot of jazzy clutch knowledge.
Basically, I need recomendations that meet these standards:

Accord (1995)
Not Too Soft (slippage is the gay)

Not Too Hard (looking for street use)

Able to withstand up to 350hp (future proofing any other issues, so eventually I hope to be making around there with a swap and boost)


I dont know if Im missing anything...But w/e.

ANy help would be very much appreciated, thanx!

exedy stage one would be best. better than the OEM one, and not too aggresive for the street/mild mods.

How much hp and torque is it now or is it completely stock?
If it has like minor power mods get a stage 1 street and race clutch.
If it has major power mods get a stage 2 and may be a lightened fly wheel.

Plus did you get your tranny checked if its not clutch related?

I would go with the exedy stage 2 thick since its a streetable clutch that can hold something like 400hp. As long as you get the thick and not the thin you should be good. Also the stage 2 is only like $20 more than the stage 1.

Right now its mostly stock, minor mods.

I had a friend, and then a mechanic check it out and it all points to tranny, and I dont see my stock clutch holding out with more than 220hp on it later, so I figure I'll replace em both.
