What is the primary benefit of the 725 Series Race Clutch over a stock clutch?

The 725 Series Race Clutch is designed to handle significantly more torque, up to 700 ft-lbs, compared to a stock clutch. This makes it suitable for modified vehicles that produce higher horsepower and torque outputs.

Does this clutch kit include everything needed for installation?

This kit includes the performance pressure plate and a sprung organic clutch disc. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation guide to confirm if any additional components, such as a new pilot bearing or release bearing, are required for your specific application.

How does the sprung organic disc affect drivability?

The sprung organic disc is chosen for its ability to absorb some of the shock and vibration associated with high-performance clutches. This generally results in a smoother engagement and a more comfortable feel during daily driving compared to unsprung or harder friction materials.

About this part

Product Details

This is the Clutch Masters 725 Series Race Clutch kit, specifically built for the 2012 and 2013 Volkswagen Golf R with the 2.0T engine (MK6 platform). If you're pushing significant power and need a clutch that can handle it, this kit is designed to hold up to 700 ft-lbs of torque, making it a solid choice for modified vehicles or those used in demanding driving conditions.

The 725 Series uses a single-disc setup with a sprung hub design, which helps to absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a high-performance clutch. This particular kit features a performance pressure plate and a sprung organic disc, offering a good balance between holding power and drivability for a race-oriented clutch. The organic material in the disc provides a smoother engagement than some harder compounds, which can be beneficial for street use, while still offering the strength needed for spirited driving and track events. Clutch Masters is known for their well-built clutch components, and this kit is no exception, aiming to provide reliable performance when you need it most.

When installing a race clutch like this, it's important to ensure your flywheel is in good condition or resurfaced properly, as it directly impacts clutch performance and longevity. This kit is designed as a direct replacement for the stock clutch assembly, but due to its performance nature, it's recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions for any specific requirements or torque specifications. This clutch is a significant upgrade for the Golf R, intended for drivers who have modified their vehicles and require a clutch that can reliably transfer that increased power to the wheels.
