What is the advantage of an 8-puck sprung disc clutch?

An 8-puck sprung disc offers a large friction surface for excellent holding power, suitable for higher torque applications. The springs in the hub help to absorb drivetrain shock and reduce engagement harshness, making it more streetable than a solid disc.

What does 'Short Shift' mean in this clutch kit?

The 'Short Shift' designation typically indicates that the kit includes components, such as a modified pressure plate or release bearing, designed to reduce the travel distance between gears. This results in quicker and more precise gear changes.

What other parts might I need when installing this clutch kit?

When replacing your clutch, it's highly recommended to inspect and potentially replace your flywheel, pilot bearing, and release bearing. Ensure your flywheel is resurfaced or replaced to guarantee proper clutch engagement and longevity.

About this part

Product Details

Clutch Masters is well-known for making robust clutch components that can handle more power and abuse than stock. This FX400SS clutch kit is a prime example, built for your 2009-2014 Acura TSX with a 6-speed manual transmission. It’s designed to handle significantly more torque than the original clutch, making it a solid choice if you’ve added modifications that increase engine output or if you simply want a clutch that can take a beating on the street or track.

This particular kit features an 8-puck sprung disc, which offers a large surface area for excellent engagement and holding power, while the springs help absorb some of the shock during engagement. The FX400SS designation means it's a short-shift kit, which typically includes a modified pressure plate and/or release bearing designed to reduce the throw between gears, giving you a quicker, more positive shift feel. The sprung hub on the disc helps to dampen vibrations and reduce drivetrain shock, making it more streetable than a solid disc, especially with the 8-puck design. This kit is a complete package, intended to replace your entire clutch assembly.

When installing a clutch kit like this, it's important to ensure your flywheel is in good condition. If it's worn or damaged, it will need to be resurfaced or replaced for the new clutch to perform correctly and last. This kit is a significant upgrade over the factory clutch, offering improved performance and durability for demanding driving conditions.
