Ok guys this is my first post. I just got my ep about a month ago and I think it needs a new clutch soon. I've been trying to research and find out what I should get. It's my DD, cold air intake, full exhaust. That's it and that's all I want for now. Exedy has a clutch kit but I saw a review on amazon saying it does't fit the 02 si. Even though on exedys website and amazon both say it will. the one I'm looking at is the OEM replacement KHC09. Someone told me i should get the KHC10 for the rsx and it should fit. I don't want to waste my money and get the OEM replacement and it not fit. Has anyone else bought it or have any recommendations for me?

Heres the KHC09

and heres the KHC10
http://www.amazon.com/EXEDY-KHC10-OEM-Replacement-Clutch/dp/B001B5GA0C/ref=au_as_r?ie=UTF8&Make=Honda%7C59&Model=Civic%7C752&Year=2002%7C2002&carId=001&n=15684181&s=automotive&vehicleType=5

amazon says they both fit. so if anyone could help please do.

The rsx clutch will not fit on the EP3 due to the different bolt pattern on the flywheel. Also the stage 1 exedy is an OE replacement. I had it, and loved it.

If I get the stage 1 I would still have to upgrade the flywheel though right? That's what I'm reading off of exedys website.

No you don't, if you buy rsx-s clutch, you will need a k20a/k20a2 flywheel. A k20a is an upgrade also. From 15lbs to 10.5lbs.

ok thanks. So this is the stage 1 you're talking about right? http://www.exedyusa.com/oe/Clutch_Specifications

I just went to Napa and picked up a Exedy stage 1 for our cars.
