What is the main difference between this FX500 clutch and a stock clutch?

The FX500 features a 6-puck rigid disc, which offers a much more direct and aggressive engagement compared to the softer, spring-dampened disc found in a stock clutch. This results in a firmer pedal feel and immediate power transfer.

What is the break-in procedure for this Clutch Masters FX500 clutch kit?

Clutch Masters recommends a specific break-in procedure for their performance clutch kits to ensure longevity and proper function. It typically involves a period of gentle driving with no hard acceleration or clutch dumps, followed by a series of moderate engagement cycles. Always refer to the manufacturer's included instructions for the exact steps.

Does this clutch kit include all the necessary parts for installation?

This kit includes the FX500 6-puck rigid disc and likely the pressure plate. However, it's always a good idea to check the specific contents list provided by Clutch Masters or consult with us to confirm if a pilot bearing, release bearing, or alignment tool are included or recommended as separate purchases for your application.

About this part

Product Details

This is the Clutch Masters FX500 6-puck rigid disc clutch kit specifically for the 2009-2012 Porsche 911 Carrera with the 3.6L DFI engine. If you're looking for a clutch that offers a more direct and aggressive engagement, especially for track use or spirited driving, this kit is a solid choice. It's built to handle more power and torque than the stock clutch, making it a popular upgrade for owners who push their cars hard.

The FX500 series features a 6-puck rigid disc, which is designed for maximum engagement and durability under demanding conditions. The rigid hub means there are no springs to absorb shock, leading to a very immediate clutch feel. This type of clutch is well-suited for applications where quick shifts and consistent power transfer are critical. The kit includes the necessary components to replace your worn-out clutch system, ensuring a complete service. Clutch Masters is known for making well-built clutch components, and this FX500 kit reflects that reputation with its robust construction.

When installing a performance clutch like this, be prepared for a firmer pedal feel and a more abrupt engagement compared to a stock clutch. This is normal for this type of setup and is part of what allows it to handle higher power levels and provide that direct connection. It's always recommended to have this type of component installed by a qualified technician who can ensure proper break-in procedures are followed according to Clutch Masters' guidelines.
