What is the main benefit of a Stage 3+ clutch kit?

A Stage 3+ clutch kit, like this SPEC SA113F, is designed to handle significantly more torque than a stock clutch. This makes it ideal for vehicles with engine modifications that increase power output or for drivers who want a more robust drivetrain.

Does this clutch kit include everything needed for installation?

This SPEC clutch kit includes the pressure plate and clutch disc. It is recommended to also have your flywheel resurfaced or replaced, and you may need a new pilot bearing and release bearing, which are often sold separately.

Will this clutch kit feel much different than my original clutch?

Yes, you can expect a firmer pedal feel with this Stage 3+ clutch kit compared to your original equipment. The engagement will also be more direct, which is typical for performance clutch upgrades designed for higher torque capacity.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to handle more power in your 1978-1988 Audi 5000, 1984-1987 Audi 4000, or 1985-1987 Audi Coupe/GT, this SPEC Stage 3+ clutch kit is a solid option. This kit is designed to hold significantly more torque than the stock clutch, making it suitable for modified engines or if you simply want a more robust drivetrain. The Stage 3+ designation means it's built for serious performance, offering a noticeable increase in clamping force and engagement precision.

SPEC uses a well-built, high-performance pressure plate paired with a sprung, multi-plate disc assembly. This combination allows for excellent torque transfer while still providing a manageable pedal feel for daily driving, though it will be firmer than stock. The sprung hub in the disc helps absorb some of the drivetrain shock, contributing to a smoother engagement than a solid hub design. This kit is a popular choice for Audi owners who have upgraded their engines and need a clutch that can keep up.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to ensure your flywheel is resurfaced or replaced to provide a clean and flat mating surface for the new clutch disc and pressure plate. This helps prevent premature wear and ensures proper engagement. This kit includes the necessary components to replace your entire clutch assembly, giving you a complete solution for your drivetrain upgrade.
