About this part

Product Details

This SPEC Stage 1 clutch kit gives you the essential components to replace your worn-out clutch system. Inside the box, you'll find a new clutch disc, a heavy-duty pressure plate, and a release bearing, all designed to work together for a solid engagement. This kit is specifically put together for the 1985-1989 Toyota MR2 with the 1.6L engine, and also fits the 1990-1991 Toyota Celica, 1989-1991 Toyota Corolla, 1988-1990 Toyota Tercel, and the 1990-1991 Geo Prizm.

The Stage 1 clutch is a popular choice for drivers looking for a reliable upgrade over the stock clutch. It's built to handle a bit more power than the original, making it a good option if you've made some mild performance modifications or just want a more robust feel. The pressure plate in this kit offers a stronger clamping force, which helps ensure the clutch disc stays firmly engaged under load. This means you get a more positive and consistent clutch pedal feel, which can be a welcome change from a spongy or slipping stock clutch.

When you're ready to install, you'll want to make sure you have the necessary tools and a service manual for your specific vehicle. Proper alignment of the clutch disc during installation is key to a smooth operation. This kit is a well-built replacement that aims to restore and improve your vehicle's drivetrain performance.
