What is the main benefit of a Stage 2 clutch kit over a stock clutch?

A Stage 2 clutch kit, like this SPEC model, uses a higher-performance friction material and a pressure plate with increased clamping force. This allows it to handle more engine torque than a factory clutch, making it suitable for modified engines or more demanding driving conditions.

Does this clutch kit include a flywheel?

This SPEC Stage 2 clutch kit includes the clutch disc and pressure plate. It does not include a flywheel. It is recommended to resurface or replace your existing flywheel during installation for optimal performance and longevity.

What is the purpose of the sprung hub on the clutch disc?

The sprung hub design on the clutch disc helps to absorb torsional vibrations and shock loads from the engine and drivetrain. This results in a smoother engagement and can reduce noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) felt in the cabin.

About this part

Product Details

The friction material on this SPEC Stage 2 clutch kit is a high-performance organic composite, chosen for its ability to handle more torque than a stock clutch while still offering a relatively smooth engagement. This makes it a solid choice for drivers who have upgraded their engine's power output or simply want a more robust clutch for spirited driving. It’s designed to be a direct replacement for the factory clutch in specific 5-speed applications.

This Stage 2 kit is built to handle increased demands. The clutch disc features a sprung hub design, which helps absorb driveline shock and reduce noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) compared to a solid hub. The pressure plate is engineered for increased clamping force, ensuring positive engagement and preventing clutch slip under load. This combination is ideal for vehicles that have seen performance modifications or are used in demanding conditions where the stock clutch might struggle.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to resurface or replace your flywheel to ensure proper clutch disc contact and prevent premature wear. This kit includes the clutch disc and pressure plate. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for detailed procedures and torque specifications to ensure a successful installation and optimal performance.
