Spec Opel Calibra C20LET Stage 3+ Clutch Kit

The SPEC Stage 3+ clutch kit for the Opel Calibra C20LET features a sprung, multi-plate design, offering a significant increase in holding capacity over stock. This setup is built to handle the demands of higher horsepower engines, making it a solid choice for performance builds where the original clutch can no longer keep up. The sprung hub design helps to absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a more aggressive clutch, aiming for a more manageable feel on the street.

This kit includes a high-performance pressure plate and a multi-plate clutch disc assembly. The multi-plate configuration allows for a larger friction surface area within a compact diameter, which is key to its increased torque handling. The sprung design of the clutch disc is important for drivability, as it helps to dampen engagement and reduce drivetrain shock, which is especially beneficial when you're pushing more power through the transmission. SPEC has engineered this kit to be a direct replacement for the factory clutch, simplifying the installation process for mechanics familiar with clutch replacements.

When installing this Stage 3+ clutch kit, it's important to ensure your flywheel is in good condition or to replace it if necessary, as a worn flywheel can affect clutch performance and longevity. Proper break-in procedures, as recommended by SPEC, should also be followed to ensure the clutch surfaces mate correctly and achieve their full potential. This kit is designed for those looking to significantly upgrade their Calibra's drivetrain to match increased engine output.
