So I have an 88 accord lxi with bad clutch and I came across a stage five clutch kit im kinda on a budget and stage 1-4 clutch kits run around 300+ the stage 5 is priced at 240 would it be wise to get the stage5?

Well how many ponys you got ? It matter on what type of clutch you will need and remember if you got more ponys in your car than what your car is rated for make your brake system upgrade.

Well its a stock engine but planning a complete rebuild soon
with a mostly stock engine you just need to go with an OEM equivalent clutch, you don't need a stage anything
here these are supposed to be excellent clutches for normal use, unless you are racing you really don't need much more. http://www.partsgeek.com/gbproducts/...ek+Google+Base

The brand for the stage 5 I found was act for 240
yea, I was just saying he has basically a stock engine, no point in wasting money on a stage five clutch when all he needs is an oem equipment style
you may search some of it on ebay or in google shopping
Ebay often has Exedy clutches on the cheap.
Probably an Exedy: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1986-...item5d295c040a

The clutch should be a fuse in your drive line, blowing before you blow axles or transmissions. I think Sean was running an Exedy with a claimed 350HP with little slippage. Our cars have more clutch from the factory than they need.
BTW, the OEM clutch in the car is LUK/Exedy. That's what came with the car and lasted 22 years. Why go with anything else on a stock car?
