Clutch Masters 99-03 Audi A3 1.8L / 01-02 Audi TT 1.8L FX400 Sprung Ceramic Clutch Kit w/o Flywheel

The sprung ceramic friction disc in this Clutch Masters FX400 clutch kit is designed to handle higher torque loads than stock, making it a solid choice if you're looking to put more power down through your 1999-2005 Volkswagen Beetle, 2000-2006 Volkswagen Golf, 2000-2005 Volkswagen Jetta, or 2001-2002 Audi TT with the 1.8L engine. This kit uses a sprung ceramic material for the clutch disc, which helps absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a more aggressive clutch setup, while still providing a strong engagement. The FX400 series is a popular option for drivers who want improved performance without sacrificing too much daily drivability.

This kit includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, and release bearing. It does not include a flywheel, so you'll need to reuse your existing one or purchase a compatible replacement separately. The sprung design of the ceramic disc is notable because it helps cushion engagement, which can be beneficial for street use, especially when paired with a more powerful engine. Clutch Masters is known for making well-built clutch components, and this FX400 kit is designed to offer a noticeable improvement in clutch performance and durability over a worn-out factory unit.

When installing this clutch kit, it's always a good idea to inspect your flywheel for any signs of wear or damage, and resurface or replace it if necessary to ensure proper clutch operation and longevity. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's installation instructions carefully for the best results.
