OS Giken Mini COOPER/S R50/53 Grand Touring Dampened Single Plate Clutch

If you're looking to replace the clutch in your 2006-2013 Mini Cooper and want something that offers a noticeable improvement in feel and performance without being overly aggressive, OS Giken's Grand Touring Dampened Single Plate Clutch is a solid option. This clutch is designed to handle more power than the stock unit, making it a great choice if you've added modifications or simply want a more robust drivetrain component.

OS Giken is well-known for its high-performance clutch systems, and this Grand Touring model is built with their signature attention to detail. It features a single plate design with a dampened center hub. The dampening helps absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a performance clutch, leading to a smoother engagement and a more comfortable driving experience, especially in stop-and-go traffic. The clutch disc itself is constructed with durable materials to ensure longevity and consistent performance, even under spirited driving conditions. This kit is engineered to fit your Mini Cooper precisely, ensuring a straightforward installation process for a qualified mechanic.

When you're installing a new clutch, it's always a good idea to inspect and potentially replace other drivetrain components that are easily accessible at the same time. This includes the clutch release bearing and pilot bearing, as well as ensuring your flywheel is in good condition or resurfaced if necessary. This OS Giken clutch kit is designed to work with the factory flywheel, but always check its condition during the clutch replacement. With this clutch, you can expect improved pedal feel and a more direct connection to the drivetrain, making your Mini Cooper feel more responsive.
