XClutch 14-16 Kia Forte Koup SX 1.6L Stage 2 Cushioned Ceramic Clutch Kit

When you're looking to upgrade the clutch on your 2013-2021 Hyundai Veloster, 2014-2016 Kia Forte Koup SX, or 2017-2024 Kia Forte, this XClutch Stage 2 Cushioned Ceramic Clutch Kit (XKHD24024-1C) is a solid option. This kit includes the cushioned ceramic friction disc, a heavy-duty diaphragm pressure plate, a release bearing, a pilot bearing, and an alignment tool, so you have the essential components for a complete clutch replacement. It's designed for performance street applications where you need more torque holding and heat capacity than the stock clutch can handle.

The Stage 2 kit uses a cushioned ceramic friction disc, which means it has a sprung hub and extra dampening between the friction surfaces. This design helps with pedal modulation, making it easier to control engagement, especially in performance driving situations. The heavy-duty diaphragm pressure plate offers increased clamping force, ensuring that the clutch can handle higher torque loads without slipping. XClutch has over 30 years of experience in clutch development, and they use advanced materials and rigorous testing to ensure their performance upgrades balance driveability with enhanced performance.

This kit is recommended for performance street use and is built to handle higher heat and torque demands. If you're rebuilding the drivetrain on a performance-oriented Veloster or Forte Koup, this XClutch kit is engineered to provide a noticeable improvement in clutch performance and durability.
