Spec 94-04 Mitsubishi Lancer EVO VII 2.0L Stage 5 Clutch Kit

The SPEC Stage 5 clutch kit is built with a sprung, multi-plate design, featuring a high-performance sprung hub and a carbon-ceramic friction material. This setup is engineered to handle the extreme demands of high-horsepower, track-focused vehicles, offering a significant increase in torque capacity over stock. The multi-plate configuration spreads the clamping force across multiple friction surfaces, allowing for a higher holding capacity without requiring an excessively stiff pressure plate, which can make pedal feel difficult for daily driving.

This Stage 5 kit is SPEC's answer for serious performance builds where reliability under heavy load is paramount. The carbon-ceramic friction material is chosen for its ability to withstand extreme temperatures generated during aggressive driving and repeated launches, providing consistent engagement and fade resistance. While designed for high performance, SPEC aims to balance this with a manageable pedal feel, though it's important to note that a multi-plate clutch will inherently have a firmer pedal than a stock unit. This kit is a complete package, intended for enthusiasts who are pushing their Lancer EVO VII's powertrain to its limits and require a clutch that can keep up.

When installing a high-performance clutch like this, it's always recommended to inspect and potentially replace related drivetrain components such as the flywheel, pilot bearing, and release bearing to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Given the significant increase in torque handling, ensure your other drivetrain components are up to the task. This kit represents a substantial upgrade for those seeking maximum performance and durability from their EVO VII's clutch system.
