Clutch Masters 17-18 Honda Civic Type-R 2.0L FX400 8-Puck Ceramic Sprung Disc Clutch Kit

The Clutch Masters FX400 clutch kit features an 8-puck ceramic sprung disc, a design choice that balances aggressive engagement with a degree of driver comfort. This specific setup is built to handle the higher torque and power output often seen in modified 2017-2018 Honda Civic Type-R models, especially those running more boost or other performance upgrades. The sprung hub design on the disc helps absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a performance clutch, making it a bit more manageable for daily driving compared to a solid hub setup.

This kit is designed to be a direct replacement for your factory clutch, simplifying the installation process. The FX400 series from Clutch Masters is known for its ability to hold significantly more power than stock, making it a popular choice for enthusiasts looking to push their Type-R's performance further. The ceramic material used in the pucks offers excellent heat resistance and a strong engagement, crucial for preventing clutch slip under demanding conditions. Clutch Masters has been in the performance clutch business for a long time, and this kit reflects their experience in creating well-built components that can withstand spirited driving and track use.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to ensure your flywheel is in good condition or to replace it if necessary, as a worn flywheel can negatively impact clutch performance and longevity. This kit is intended for vehicles that have seen performance modifications, and while it offers a more robust engagement than the stock clutch, it's still designed to be a functional and reliable upgrade for your FK8 Civic Type-R.
