XClutch 88-90 Nissan 180SX S13 1.8L Stage 2R Extra HD Sprung Ceramic Clutch Kit

This XClutch Stage 2R clutch kit uses a sprung ceramic friction disc, a design choice that helps absorb some of the shock and vibration typically associated with aggressive clutch engagement, making it a bit more manageable for track use compared to a solid disc. It’s built for the 1988-1990 Nissan 180SX with the 1.8L engine, offering a significant step up in performance for vehicles that demand more than a standard clutch can handle.

The Stage 2R is XClutch’s race-only offering, meaning it’s engineered with a focus on holding higher torque loads and resisting extreme heat buildup. This is achieved through a high-performance pressure plate that increases clamping force, paired with the advanced ceramic friction material. This combination is recommended for track days and dedicated race cars where consistent performance under stress is critical. While it offers improved driveability over some other race clutches, remember that ceramic materials can be more abrupt during engagement, so a smooth pedal technique is key.

When you order this kit, you'll receive the friction disc, the high-performance pressure plate, a release bearing, and a pilot bearing, along with an alignment tool to help ensure proper installation. XClutch backs this with over 30 years of clutch experience and advanced testing facilities, aiming to provide a solid balance of performance and reliability for demanding applications. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details regarding your vehicle.
