I confirm this problem! Don't get 3 pieces flywheel (flywheel, friction plate, and ring)! Get 1 piece one like ACT Prolite 9lbs. It happened to me before. The outer ring gear separated from the flywheel after 2000 miles. Once this happen, the car won't start because all you do is spinning the ring around, not the whole flywheel. You don't want this to happen because it is a waste of time and money to pull the transmission out and change it again. Do it 1 time. Typical design there are only 3 screws holding the ring to the flywheel. I've seen people running it without any problem, but some does. So, just give you a head up. BTW, it was a Clutchmasters 9lbs flywheel. Search Honda Tech for XTD clutch review! There are mix reviews, but IMHO, don't get it!
