OS Giken Subaru IMPREZA GDB/GRB HTR Series Dampened Twin Plate Clutch

This is the OS Giken HTR Series Dampened Twin Plate Clutch, specifically designed for Subaru Impreza models with GDB and GRB chassis codes. If you're pushing your Impreza hard, whether on the track or in spirited street driving, a clutch upgrade like this is essential for handling increased power and ensuring reliable engagement. This twin-plate setup is built to handle significant torque and heat, offering a more robust connection between your engine and drivetrain than a stock clutch can manage.

What sets this clutch apart is its twin-plate design, which spreads the clamping force over two friction surfaces. This not only increases the torque capacity but also helps to manage heat buildup more effectively, reducing the risk of clutch fade during demanding use. The dampened design incorporates springs in the clutch disc to absorb some of the shock and vibration that can be transmitted through the drivetrain, making it a bit more streetable than a non-dampened racing clutch. OS Giken is well-known for its high-performance clutch systems, and this unit is a testament to their engineering. It's a well-built component designed for serious performance applications where reliability under stress is paramount.

When installing a twin-plate clutch like this, it's important to note that engagement can feel different from a stock single-plate unit. You'll likely experience a firmer pedal feel and a more direct engagement. It's recommended to have this clutch professionally installed, as it requires precise alignment and proper break-in procedures to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Ensure your flywheel is in good condition or replace it as part of the installation process. This clutch is a significant upgrade for those looking to maximize their Subaru's performance potential.
