What is the main benefit of a Stage 3 clutch over a stock clutch?

A Stage 3 clutch, like this SPEC kit, is designed to handle significantly more torque than your factory clutch. This is achieved through a higher clamping force pressure plate and a more aggressive friction material, making it ideal for modified engines or demanding driving conditions.

Does this clutch kit come with everything needed for installation?

This kit includes the high-clamp load pressure plate, the carbon-ceramic friction disc, and a release bearing. It's recommended to inspect and potentially resurface or replace your flywheel, as it is not included in this kit.

Will this clutch kit make my pedal harder to press?

While the sprung hub disc helps maintain a more comfortable engagement, a performance clutch kit with a higher clamping load will generally result in increased pedal effort compared to a stock clutch. This is a common characteristic of performance upgrades.

About this part

Product Details

The SPEC Stage 3 clutch kit for your 2006-2009 Mitsubishi Eclipse 2.4L features a high-performance sprung hub disc with a carbon-ceramic friction material. This combination is designed to handle significantly more torque than the factory clutch, making it a solid choice for modified vehicles or those that see frequent track use. The sprung hub design helps to absorb drivetrain shock, providing a smoother engagement than a solid hub disc, even with the increased clamping force.

This kit includes a high-clamp load pressure plate, a carbon-ceramic friction disc, and a release bearing. The carbon-ceramic material offers excellent heat resistance and a high coefficient of friction, which translates to consistent engagement and reliable performance under demanding conditions. While it's a performance upgrade, the sprung hub disc aims to maintain a comfortable pedal feel for daily driving, though some increase in pedal effort is expected compared to stock. Installation will require removing the transmission, so it's a job best suited for those comfortable with major drivetrain work or a professional mechanic.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to ensure your flywheel is in good condition. If it shows signs of wear or damage, resurfacing or replacing it is highly recommended for optimal clutch life and performance. This kit is a complete package designed to replace your entire clutch assembly, offering a comprehensive solution for your Eclipse's drivetrain needs.
