Clutch Masters 07-11 Mazda MazdaSPEED3 FX850 Street Twin Disc Clutch Kit

This is the Clutch Masters FX850 Street Twin Disc Clutch Kit, specifically designed for the 2007-2011 Mazda MazdaSPEED3. If you're pushing significant power through your MazdaSPEED3, especially with modifications like a larger turbo or extensive engine work, a stock clutch just won't hold. This twin-disc setup is built to handle serious torque and deliver a reliable engagement for street driving, even with a high-horsepower setup. It's a substantial upgrade over the factory clutch, offering a much higher torque capacity to keep your drivetrain connected when you need it most.

The FX850 kit features two clutch discs, which distribute the load over a larger surface area. This not only increases the torque capacity but also helps to manage heat buildup, making it more durable under demanding conditions. Clutch Masters uses a sprung center hub design for the discs, which helps to dampen drivetrain shock and reduce chatter, making it more streetable than many other high-performance twin-disc options. The kit includes a billet steel flywheel, which is lighter than stock and helps with quicker engine response. The pressure plate is a forged unit, known for its strength and consistent clamping force, ensuring the discs stay firmly engaged under load. This setup is engineered to provide a firm pedal feel, which is typical for performance twin-disc clutches, giving you direct feedback from the drivetrain.

When installing a twin-disc clutch like this, it's important to note that it's a more involved process than a single-disc replacement. You'll want to ensure your flywheel and pressure plate surfaces are perfectly clean, and follow the manufacturer's torque specifications precisely. Because this is a high-performance component, it's often paired with a performance flywheel and sometimes a reinforced clutch fork or slave cylinder. This kit is designed to be a complete solution for managing increased power output in your MazdaSPEED3, offering a robust and responsive clutch system for spirited driving and modified applications.
