Action Clutch Stage 5 Clutch Kit for 02-06 RSX Type S

Action Clutch Stage 5 Clutch Kit - 2002-2006 Acura RSX Type S (K20A2/K20Z1)

Built a K20 that makes real power and keeps slipping the clutch trying to put it down? The Action Clutch Stage 5 is built to grab and hold, period. This is the 2MS MIBA sprung ceramic kit, and it clamps down with about 200% more holding capacity than your factory clutch, so it hangs onto serious power without giving up. But let's be straight with each other right up front: this is a race clutch. It's aggressive, it engages hard and fast, and it's not the one you want for your daily driver. If your RSX is a track car or a dedicated build, keep reading, this is exactly what you want. If it's your commuter, this isn't the clutch for you, and we'll tell you why.

Real Talk: Don't Put This In Your Daily

We mean it. A sprung ceramic disc like this one grabs hard and engages almost like a switch, on or off, with very little of the smooth, forgiving takeup you get from a street clutch. That's fantastic on track, where you want instant, no-slip engagement and you're not babying it through traffic. It's miserable in stop-and-go. You'll fight it at every light, it'll chatter and want to stall if you're not deliberate, and launching smoothly in traffic becomes a daily chore. The break-in helps and a skilled driver can manage it, but make no mistake, this clutch was built for the track, not your morning commute. Buy it for the car you flog, not the car you sit in traffic with.

Built To Grab And Hold Nothing Back

Here's what's doing the work. The heavy-duty pressure plate uses a dual clamp load diaphragm and reinforced drive straps, so it puts serious, durable clamping force on the disc and keeps it there lap after lap. The MIBA ceramic disc is what gives you that lightning-fast, no-slip engagement, and once it's properly broken in, the chatter settles down to something you can live with on a track car. Add it all up and you've got a clutch that holds 200% more than stock and shrugs off heavy track abuse without fading or slipping when you need it most.

The Safety Stuff Action Clutch Doesn't Skip

This part matters more than people realize. When a clutch spring pops loose inside the bellhousing, it can do catastrophic damage to your engine or transmission, the kind of damage that ends a track day and your wallet. Action Clutch designed their patented fully enclosed spring retainers specifically to keep those springs locked in place so that never happens. And every single kit gets checked and signed off by one of their engineers before it ships, a team with over 60 years of combined experience, so the clutch bolted into your car was inspected by someone who knows exactly what they're looking at. On a part spinning at engine speed inches from your shins, that's worth a lot.
