I did an Exedy Stage 1, slightly stiffer than stock but a nice feel to it for something you drive regularly
Just got mine back together stock everything and typing this after a run thru some socal mountains
If you do end up replacing it. I have found success with the exedy clutch kit and luk flywheel combo.
Techtonics Tuning for the Win! 210mm Sachs Clutch Kit 03/’94-early’99 Mk3 2.0L & ’95-’02 Cabrio - Techtonics Tuning Sachs Clutch Kit For Single Pin Pressure Plate 28 Spline Clutch Disc Thrust Plate Thrust Plate Ring Main & Push Rod Seal Kit Alignment Tool 03/'94-early'99 Mk3 Golf 2.0L, 03/'94-early'99 Mk3 Jetta 2.0L '95-'02 Cabrio
I run the exedy OEM replacement kit. Whatever you do make sure you replace the bearing guide and use a new OEM bearing. Throw away the one that comes in the kit it's trash and won't last half the life of the disc.
I used exedy organic clutch kit and works great, I'm around 350-380 hp.
I ordered one from RockAuto for $370. This came in today, all logos are in the correct place, however they sanded off the Honda logo. Super excited to be clutch buzz free for half the price!
Let me know...main reason I went with Sachs was stock like driveability with no chatter and less chance of crank walk compared to other set ups with SMF and high torque pressure plates
Buy oem. Go on any rotary vender (atkins, mazdatrix) and order oem exedy #1007 I think . I tried saving money ordered from ebay but pilot and release/ throwout bearing was wrong and cost me more in long run. Exedy stage 1 has throwout bearing issues apparently. If you want a slight upgrade, buy the oem exedy s2 rx8 clutch kit.
I installed a 210mm clutch kit in my car and (I think) it doesn't work: I saw Black Forest Industries only sells the 210mm clutch for MkI's as an upgrade so I went on Rockauto and bought a Sachs 210mm clutch kit for an 84 1.8L Rabbit and a flywheel on Ebay
