What is the main difference between a rigid disc and a sprung disc clutch?

A rigid disc clutch, like the one in this kit, has the springs located in the flywheel or pressure plate, not in the clutch disc itself. This typically results in a more direct and immediate clutch engagement feel. A sprung disc clutch has springs integrated into the clutch disc hub, which helps to absorb some of the driveline shock and can provide a smoother engagement.

What other parts should I consider replacing when installing a new clutch kit?

When replacing your clutch, it's a good time to inspect and potentially replace wear items like the pilot bearing and rear main seal. You may also want to consider resurfacing or replacing the flywheel, depending on its condition, to ensure optimal clutch performance and longevity.

Does this clutch kit include a new flywheel?

This Clutch Masters FX250 Rigid Disc Clutch Kit (Part# 20303-HD0F-R) includes the clutch disc and pressure plate. It does not include a new flywheel; you will need to use your existing flywheel or purchase one separately.

About this part

Product Details

Clutch Masters is well-known for making robust drivetrain components, and this FX250 Rigid Disc Clutch Kit is a prime example of their work for your 2004-2008 Porsche 911 Carrera or Carrera 4 with the 3.6L engine. If you're looking to replace a worn-out clutch or want a more direct feel when shifting, this kit is designed to handle the demands of your 997 generation 911.

This FX250 kit features a rigid (sprung) disc, which offers a more immediate engagement compared to a sprung hub design. This means you'll feel a more direct connection between the engine and the transmission, making for sharper shifts. The rigid disc is paired with a high-performance pressure plate that offers increased clamping force over the stock unit. This ensures that the clutch can effectively transfer power without slipping, even under spirited driving conditions. The kit includes the necessary components to get your clutch system back in top shape, providing a solid option for your Porsche.

When installing a clutch kit, it's always recommended to inspect and potentially replace other related drivetrain components such as the pilot bearing and rear main seal. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for detailed guidance on the proper procedure and any specific tool requirements for your Porsche 911.
