clutch going bad on '12 TL SH-AWD TECH 6 Speed

I have found an OEM EXEDY clutch kit from their website, in reference to another thread here,

EXEDY Globalparts Corporation | High Performance and OEM Clutches and Flywheels

Part # HCK1012

I have also found a

Spec 2010 Acura TL 3.7L 6Speed Stage 2+ Clutch Kit - EndLess RPM

i really want the Stage 2 however I've heard they are nowhere near as reliable as OEM , and are just painted to look better

however this SPEC says it includes Kevlar/CF friction material

i want something that's gonna last,

any input?

it's slipping in every gear I need to change it fast

i'm at 56k no a 2012 6Speed TL TECH SHAWD

so nobody has ANY input at all?

lol seriously?

My opinion, forget those two options and purchase an OEM Acura clutch kit. These clutches last ideally in properly driven cars as long as your not banging through every gear on a daily basis. For the quality and warranty of OEM parts, plus the guarantee that they will fit and function as designed is paramount for a guy like me with a car like this...again, just my opinion.

I see pressure plate, friction disc, pilot bearing, clutch release(throw out) bearing AND 3 quarts of Honda trans fluid available at my local Acura dealer for $840.

Please keep in mind, I stand behind what I sell and this is simply an opinion.

excellent thank you for your opinion, a local shop has the same exedy factory made clutch from honda for $480!! $1200 installed, i've researched, and Exedy is honda's clutch manufacturer which means that i'm buying the same part , very pleased. I'll be going the OEM route. hopefully they will make a staged clutch i want a harder shift..

I would recommend the OE clutch too. After market clutches and fly wheels don't usually last as long as the OE fly wheel and clutch normally do. Unless your tracking the car. Which I can't see.
