Clutch Masters 90-00 Honda Accord 2.2L / 2.3L (High Rev) / 92-00 Honda Prelude 2.2L / 2.3L (High Rev
Clutch Masters 08014-HRC6 is the FX400 six-puck ceramic clutch for the four-cylinder Honda manual cars that share the 2.2L and 2.3L drivetrain: the 1990-2000 Accord, the 1992-2000 Prelude and the 1997-1999 Acura CL. It is built for owners who have turbocharged, swapped or seriously built one of these engines and are now slipping a stock or stage 1 clutch. This is a race and hard-street part, not a replacement for a stock commuter car.
The kit pairs the Clutch Masters Power Plus I high-leverage heavy-duty pressure plate with a sprung ceramic button disc. Clutch Masters rates it at 170 percent more holding capacity than stock. The six ceramic pads are riveted solid with no marcel cushion behind them, so the clutch grabs quickly and the maker warns it may chatter slightly in first and reverse. The sprung hub adds some damping, which makes it more livable than a rigid puck disc, but it is still the more aggressive of the two FX400 versions; the eight-puck HDCL disc is the gentler option.
Clutch Masters is blunt that ceramic discs are never recommended for stock or near-stock cars. On light throttle a ceramic disc engages harshly and can wear faster if it is slipped like an organic clutch. The payoff is heat resistance and holding power for launches, boost and track use.
Make a full-throttle pull in third and watch the tach against road speed. If rpm jumps without the car pulling harder, the clutch is slipping. Before replacing it, check for an oil-soaked disc from a leaking rear main or axle seal and make sure the clutch master and slave release fully, because those faults cause slip and drag that a new clutch alone will not cure. Our slipping diagnosis guide lays out the steps, and the shift flare vs slip guide helps you read what the tach is telling you.
Our title lists the 1990-2000 Honda Accord 2.2L and 2.3L and the 1992-2000 Prelude 2.2L and 2.3L. The Clutch Masters application list for 08014-HRC6 covers exactly those cars plus the 1997-1999 Acura CL 2.2L and 2.3L. It is for four-cylinder manual models only, not V6 or automatic cars. Many of these Hondas have been engine or transmission swapped over the years, so confirm the transmission in your car matches the original, or send us your year and VIN and we will check before it ships. For a race build that needs more than a single disc can hold, compare the FX725 race twin disc kit or the Competition Clutch H-series twin disc. A milder segmented ceramic single is the Competition Clutch stage 3.5 kit.

Usually not. Clutch Masters says the 6-puck engages quickly, may chatter in first and reverse, and that ceramic discs are never recommended for stock or near-stock cars. The 8-puck FX400 or an organic kit suits street use better.
Clutch Masters lists the 1990-2000 Honda Accord, 1992-2000 Prelude and 1997-1999 Acura CL with the 2.2L or 2.3L four-cylinder and manual transmission. Send your year and VIN if the car has been swapped.
Clutch Masters rates the FX400 at a 170 percent increase in holding capacity over stock.
No. The kit includes the pressure plate, the sprung ceramic disc, a release bearing, a pilot bearing when applicable, an alignment tool, an instruction card and decals. Resurface or replace the flywheel separately.
These Hondas use DOT 3 brake fluid in the clutch master cylinder reservoir. Bleed the system after the clutch install.
