What is the main difference between a rigid disc and a sprung clutch disc?

A rigid disc clutch has no springs, leading to a more direct and immediate engagement. Sprung clutch discs have springs to dampen engagement and reduce drivetrain shock. Rigid discs can offer quicker shifts but may transmit more noise and vibration.

What is the recommended break-in procedure for this clutch kit?

Clutch Masters typically recommends a break-in period for their performance clutch kits. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions included with the kit for the specific break-in procedure, which usually involves a series of gentle accelerations and decelerations without hard launches.

Does this clutch kit include a new flywheel?

This listing is for the Clutch Masters FX300 Clutch Kit, which includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, and release bearing. It does not include a flywheel. You will typically reuse your existing flywheel or purchase a compatible performance flywheel separately.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to upgrade the clutch on your 2014-2019 Mini Cooper S with the 2.0L Turbo engine, this Clutch Masters FX300 kit is a solid option. This kit is designed to handle more power than the stock clutch, making it a good choice for drivers who push their cars a bit harder or have added performance modifications. The FX300 series is known for its ability to provide a strong, reliable engagement that feels more direct than a factory clutch.

This particular kit features a rigid disc, which means it doesn't have any spring dampening. This design contributes to a more immediate clutch engagement and can help with quicker shifts, especially when paired with a performance flywheel. The clutch disc itself is built with materials that offer improved heat handling and wear resistance compared to stock, so you can expect it to hold up better under demanding conditions. Clutch Masters uses well-built components throughout their kits, aiming for a balance of performance and longevity.

When installing a rigid disc clutch, it's important to be aware that you might notice more drivetrain noise or vibration transmitted through the chassis, especially at idle or during low-speed maneuvers. This is a normal characteristic of rigid disc setups and is part of what gives you that connected feel to the engine and drivetrain. This kit is designed as a direct replacement for your existing clutch assembly, simplifying the installation process. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's recommended break-in procedure after installation to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the new clutch components.
