Clutch Masters 88-89 Toyota MR-2 1.6L Eng w/ Supercharger FX500 Clutch Kit 6-Puck

This Clutch Masters FX500 clutch kit is built around a 6-puck disc, a design choice that offers a more aggressive engagement compared to a multi-plate setup. It's specifically made for your 1988-1989 Toyota MR2 with the 1.6L supercharged engine, meaning it's engineered to handle the increased demands of a performance drivetrain.

The FX500 series is known for its ability to hold significantly more horsepower than stock, making it a solid option if you've modified your MR2's engine or plan to. The kit includes a high-performance pressure plate, a sprung 6-puck friction disc, and a release bearing. The sprung hub on the disc helps absorb some of the shock during engagement, which can make it a bit more manageable for daily driving than an unsprung version, while still providing the clamping force needed for spirited driving or track use. Clutch Masters uses well-built components throughout their kits to ensure reliability under stress.

When installing this kit, remember that a 6-puck clutch typically has a narrower engagement window than a stock clutch. This means you'll need to be more precise with your pedal control, especially when starting from a stop. It's a trade-off for the increased holding capacity. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's installation instructions carefully, and consider replacing your pilot bearing and rear main seal while the transmission is out for a complete job.
