Clutch Masters 00-05 Toyota MR-2 Spyder 1.8L / 03-07 Scion xA/xB 1.5L 6-Puck Ceramic Clutch Kit

This Clutch Masters 6-puck ceramic clutch kit features a sprung hub design, which helps to absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a more aggressive clutch setup. This particular kit is built for vehicles that see a lot of spirited driving or are used in applications where a firm, direct engagement is desired. The ceramic friction material is known for its ability to handle higher temperatures and torque loads compared to organic materials, making it a solid choice for performance-oriented builds or for drivers who are hard on their clutches.

The 6-puck design means there are six distinct friction surfaces on the clutch disc, which translates to a more abrupt engagement and a higher torque capacity. While this offers a very direct feel, it's important to note that it can be less forgiving in stop-and-go traffic than a more street-friendly organic clutch. The sprung hub is a notable feature, as it helps to dampen some of the harshness, making it more manageable for daily driving than a solid hub design. This kit is designed to fit a wide range of vehicles, including popular models like the Toyota Corolla, Matrix, and Scion xB, as well as the Lotus Elise and Exige.

When installing this clutch kit, it's always a good idea to resurface or replace your flywheel to ensure optimal performance and longevity. You'll also want to inspect your pilot bearing and throw-out bearing for wear and replace them if necessary, as these are often accessible during a clutch job. This kit includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, and a release bearing, providing the essential components for a clutch replacement. Clutch Masters is a well-known name in the performance clutch market, and this kit reflects their focus on delivering robust components for demanding applications.
