Exedy Stage II just installed... 1500 miles so far. Grabs great but takes a little getting used to compared to stock. Overall is okay for a daily driver.

I bought one from that same seller recently, It's a genuine exedy kit and they are an exedy dealer, same clutch you will get if you go to the dealer and get an oem 5th gen but much cheaper

A bit overkill for a midly modded car.Stage I would be fine enough. My stage I performed great, it wasnt untill I went boosted that it began to slip.

True true... The stage II is actually in case I decide to go w/ 100 shot NAWZ!!! Still haven't really decided if I should go an all motor route or not so just upgraded in case.

My Max doesn't have alot of go-fast mods yet, just CAI and y-pipe, but the 5th gen clutch is kick ***. I would def. get the SS clutch line while I was at it too.

If you can find one. I posted in the general forum about my 1month wait, yet none of the usual SS sellers have any (or are no longer producing them). Best I could do is find a place doing them for $80 shipped (it's in CA, so included tax.)

Yeah, it took me w while to get one too, might have to wait until they get enough people to make a batch...

Def. worth the wait though IMHO.
