PRODUCT DETAILS
Exedy Stage 2 Cerametallic Thin-Disc Clutch Kit for Cable B-Series - Part #08903 (90-91) / #08900A (92-93)
The cable-clutch DA Integra gets left out of most clutch catalogs, and the two kits that do exist are easy to mix up. Exedy makes a Stage 2 thin-disc cerametallic for both halves of the chassis: 08903 for the 1990-1991 car and 08900A for the 1992-1993. Pick the year, and you get the low-inertia race-style Stage 2 on a B18A1 or a cable-trans B-swap.
What It Is and Why It Works
The cable B-series transmission uses a different release setup and input shaft than the 94-up hydro box, so the hydro kits don't fit. These two do. Both use a high-clamp ductile-iron Stage cover, about 40 percent over the Honda plate, and a thin cerametallic disc on a sprung hub. Thin means roughly half stock disc thickness, so the input shaft spins up and down faster and the synchros last longer. It also means less material to soak up heat, which is why Exedy recommends thin discs for circuit use. A street DA that gets slipped in traffic daily would be better off with a thick disc.
The 90-91 and 92-93 kits differ in the release bearing and pilot to match what Honda changed in 1992. Same clutch, different hardware. Order by year.

What to Know Before You Buy
Resurface the flywheel. Thin discs chatter on a wavy face more than thick ones do.
500 easy miles before you launch it, even on a track car.
Adjust the cable after the first hundred miles. New disc plus new release bearing changes the free play and it will creep as the disc beds.
