Was wondering what a stage 3 clutch was like. I was checking out this Civic and the guy is like it has a stage 3 clutch in it and thats all he would tell me over the phone.

Is this a different type of clutch than normal that makes it harder or easier to shift. Just a n00b question.

Stage One Clutch: is mainly for daily drivers, is a heat-treated clutch.
Stage Two Clutch: is a street/racing clutch. Is also heat-treated and made with fiber-tuff pucks. Best clutch for dealing with light bolt-on modifications (other than Intake and Exhaust) and Nitrous. Increases clamp load by 65%.
Stage Three Clutch: is a racing only clutch, made with a ceramic puck, engages immediatly to the pressure plate and fly wheel. Not designed for low RPMs, will make tons of noise (not bad fyi.) because of the ceramic puck being aggressive. Increases clamp load by 65%.
Stage Four Clutch: is made for race track driving. Also is a ceramic puck, but has no springs - just a solid hub assembly. Increases clamp load by 75%.

My former Integra had a Stage 1 Clutch installed, and I fell in love with it.
