What is the main advantage of the FX400 HDPP Sprung Ceramic Clutch Kit over a stock clutch?

The FX400 HDPP kit is designed with a higher clamping force pressure plate and a durable ceramic friction disc. This allows it to handle significantly more horsepower and torque than the original clutch, making it suitable for modified vehicles or demanding use.

Does this clutch kit come with everything needed for installation?

This kit includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, and typically a release bearing. However, it's recommended to consult your vehicle's service manual or a professional mechanic to determine if additional components like a new pilot bearing or flywheel resurfacing are needed for your specific installation.

How does the sprung ceramic disc differ from an unsprung or organic disc?

The sprung ceramic disc uses ceramic friction material, which offers excellent heat resistance and longevity for high-performance applications. The springs in the disc help to dampen vibrations and shock, providing a more comfortable engagement compared to an unsprung disc, while still maintaining a firm grip.

About this part

Product Details

This is the Clutch Masters FX400 HDPP Sprung Ceramic Clutch Kit, specifically made for the 2005-2009 Audi S4 with the 4.2L B7 engine. If you're looking to handle more power or simply want a more robust clutch for your S4, this kit is a solid option. It's designed to be a direct replacement for your stock clutch, but with significantly increased holding capacity.

The FX400 series from Clutch Masters is known for its ability to handle higher horsepower and torque applications, making it a popular choice for enthusiasts who have modified their vehicles or plan to. This particular kit features a sprung ceramic friction disc. The ceramic material offers excellent heat resistance and durability, which is crucial for aggressive driving or repeated hard launches. The sprung design of the disc helps to absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a high-performance clutch, offering a slightly more comfortable engagement than a rigid unsprung disc, while still providing a firm pedal feel. The HDPP (High-Duty Performance Pressure Plate) is built to provide a strong clamping force, ensuring that your clutch engages firmly and reliably under demanding conditions.

When installing this kit, you'll want to ensure your flywheel is in good condition, ideally resurfaced or replaced. This kit includes the necessary components to replace your clutch assembly, but it's always a good idea to check your vehicle's service manual for any specific procedures or additional parts that might be recommended during a clutch replacement, such as a new pilot bearing or rear main seal. This Clutch Masters kit is a well-built solution for S4 owners looking for a clutch that can keep up with their driving needs.
