Description
Owners of 1997–2005 Acura NSX looking to refresh or upgrade the clutch system can use the EXEDY Replacement Pressure Plate – 1997–2005 Acura NSX as a fitment-focused option developed around enthusiast street, autocross, HPDE, and modified performance builds.
EXEDY Engineering Background
EXEDY's history reaches back to 1923 in Japan, with decades of clutch development under the Daikin Clutch name. The company is both a major OEM powertrain supplier and a long-established performance-clutch manufacturer, with products engineered for everything from original-power street cars to dedicated motorsports use.
Product Overview
This EXEDY component is intended to service or rebuild a compatible clutch system with a correctly matched replacement part. Using the proper component matters because pressure plates, discs, intermediate plates, bearings, and Hyper-series hardware are engineered as a system rather than as interchangeable universal pieces.
This is best for owners maintaining an existing EXEDY assembly or performing a targeted clutch-system repair. Confirm the parent clutch kit or mating components before ordering, especially with Hyper-series and competition hardware.
Configuration
- EXEDY Part Number: PP27
- Configuration: Clutch Service Component
- Construction / Character: Application-specific EXEDY configuration
- Torque Rating: Determined by the complete matched clutch system

Which Option Makes Sense?
For 1997–2005 Acura NSX, this configuration makes the most sense when its intended duty matches the vehicle's actual power and use. Avoid overspecifying clutch aggressiveness: the best setup is the one that maintains the needed torque reserve while preserving usable modulation and protecting the rest of the driveline.
