Spec 90-93 Mazda MX-5 / Miata Stage 3 Clutch Kit

The SPEC Stage 3 clutch kit for your 1990-1993 Mazda Miata features a sprung, multi-plate design. This setup is built to handle significantly more torque than the factory clutch, making it a solid choice if you've added performance modifications or plan to. The sprung hub helps absorb some of the shock from engagement, which can make it a bit more streetable than a solid hub design, especially with a performance clutch.

This kit includes a high-clamp pressure plate, a multi-plate clutch disc with a sprung hub, and a pilot bearing. The multi-plate design increases the surface area for engagement, allowing it to dissipate heat more effectively and handle higher power levels. While it's a performance upgrade, SPEC designs these kits to fit within the stock bellhousing, simplifying installation compared to some custom setups. You'll notice a firmer pedal feel and a more direct engagement compared to your original clutch.

When installing this kit, remember that a performance clutch often requires a slightly different engagement technique than a stock clutch. It's designed for a more positive lock-up. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's recommended break-in procedure after installation to ensure the clutch surfaces mate properly and achieve their full lifespan and performance potential.
