What is the main benefit of the FX350 friction material?

The FX350 friction material offers increased holding capacity and improved heat dissipation compared to standard organic clutch materials. This allows the clutch to handle more demanding use and repeated engagement without performance fade.

What does the 'rigid' designation mean for the clutch disc?

A rigid clutch disc, as found in this kit, has a solid hub that minimizes flex and chatter during engagement. This results in a more direct and solid feel when shifting gears, which is beneficial for spirited driving.

Does this kit include everything needed for a clutch replacement?

This kit includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, and release bearing, which are the core components for a clutch replacement. However, it's recommended to inspect and potentially resurface or replace the flywheel, and to check if any other related components like the pilot bearing or rear main seal need attention during installation.
