okay i need some quick help, i think i bought the wrong clutch, will a clutch for a like 89-92 prelude fit a 2.2 cl. the preludes were 2.0 or 2.1's. HELP!!

 

according to clutch city online the performance clutch is the same part number. as the 91-01 prelude. i think ur ok. the reason why stock clutches have different part numbers is the ammount of material they use to make the clutch surface. the racing clutches have the same clutch surface so i dont think there will be a problem. if its not too late to change the order change it to the accord, but if it is then i still think ur aiit.

 

okay thanks alot man.

 

i think that prelude came with an F20b. which means an f22 tranny would be very similar

 

okay cool, makes me calmer lol

 

No, the 3rd generation Preludes came with B-series engines. A clutch will only work if it's from the same engine/tranny family, which it is not.

 

so they came with b20's?

 

That is correct!

 

okay, so it wont fit then.....?

 

yup. lude had the b20 and the b21 in those years. it was the accord that had the f20.

 

wont fit bro.

 

go to www.clutchcityonline.com look at the performance clutch for the prelude and the cl. same p/n. and its the same p/n as the accord.

hes right

 

were talking about 89 90 and 91 ludes,


damn it

 

just because its the wrong tranny type doesent mean that it wont work and the p/n's arent the same. i do agree that the best thing to do is get the right part, but on the same note its a posibility its the same part.

just alittle fyi. on a 87 mustang gt t-5 tranny, the thro out bearing is the same one (size shape all demeensions) as a 87 toyota 4 runner. i know its ghetto and u dont wanna know how i know this.

 

you prolly had both??? so maybe itll fit then lol i guess ill try it and if it doesnt fit sell it and get a diff one

 

i would just hate to waste the money. unless u can take it back.

 

well its really really cheap cuz the guy wanted to get rid of it

 

Maybe cause it woudn't fit his CL, lol.

 

the only things i could see not fitting are the input splines, (make sure it slidesonto the splines. it will not go easily but it should be able to be tapped with your palm a couplt times and go on. and the other thing is the fly wheel make sure it covers the same diamiter of the fly wheel as the old one. and the same with the pressure plate, unless it comes with its own.

 

actually he bought it for his gf's lude and then she dumped him
and so he sold it for cheap as hell

 

I wouldn't it even risk it..IMO

 

well im trying to get out of it asap so thanks for the help

 

no. i REALLY wanna know how you know this

 

Unless you can be out of a car for several days if it doesn't work.

 

just return it and get an exedy clutch kit for 94-97 prelude/accord/cl/odyssey. doesnt cost a lot, works great.

 

There was a five speed odyssey?

 

hmm, yeah you are right. i was just trying to think of all the f22/h22 engines. that would be fucking tits! Man if my odyssey was a 5spd the wife would be driving the cl for sure!!!!

 

:d

 

so the guys letting me not buy it thankfully and now im looking into xtd clutch and flywheel pakage for like 325 shipped

 

Good job!

 

thanks gramps :wink:

 

speaking of which has anyone heard of xtd before?

 

Do you mean exedy?

 

no i know of exedy is really the letters XTD

 

you would give up the cl for the minvan?

 

okay so im having a brain fart, prelude flywheels will fit my cl right?

 

yes.

 

thanks
