Clutchmasters FX300 Stage 3 Clutch Kit
Heavy duty pressure plate.  Segmented Kevlar disc for exceptional holding power & long life.
Brief Description : Bolt-ons / 80-shot NOS Small Turbo or Super-Â Â charger
Holding Capacity : 110% increase
Engmnt : Positive
The perfect clutch for aggressive drivers that still desire smooth engagement.  Our FX300 clutches utilize a segmented Kevlar disc.  This will provide more holding power than FX100 or FX200 yet it still offers exceptionally smooth driveability and long life.  Combined with our aluminum flywheel this an excellent performance upgrade.
The FX300 System uses the Power Plus I Pressure Plate with a Steel Back Segmented Kevlar disc. This clutch is designed for the ultimate street enthusiast or weekend racer running a normally aspirated car equipped with cylinder head work and/or hotter cam(s) or with medium-boost turbo or super-charger or up to 100hp NO2. The FX300 features only slightly increased pedal pressure long life disc and positive engagement.

About ClutchMasters!!
Historically high performance clutches have been a compromise. While improving holding or clamping pressure manufacturers nearly always increase pedal pressure to an uncomfortable point especially for stop-and-go traffic.
Besides drivebility concerns additional pedal pressure can adversely affect stock clutch linkage and cause premature thrust bearing wear leading to missed shifts damaged clutch components and even engine destruction.
Today thanks to Clutch Masters increased holding pressure does not necessarily mean increased pedal pressure and the problems that can accompany it. By re-engineering the leverage or fulcrum point on the pressure plate through their Hi-Leveragetm ttechnique Clutch Masters has increased clamping power often without changing pedal pressure.
Excessively increased pedal pressure as found in many of todays traditional high performance clutches places an unsafe amount of pressure on the delicate crankshaft thrust bearing found in most of todays sport compact automobiles. Placing undue stress on the thrust bearing typically causes the bearing to wear prematurely or fail altogether. This failure can lead to catastrophic internal engine damage.
A clutch simply put is a friction device that disengages and engages the engine from the transmission to allow for transition from motionless to movement and for gear changes. For street applications a smooth transition of power is essential while still being able to transfer all the power of the engine to the transmission. As power output of engines increase and demands on clutches become greater – for example high performance street or racing cars – the holding and clamping capacity of a clutch also must increase. This is where Clutch Masters innovative engineering comes into play.
No release bearing is included, you would need reuse your OEM bearing or purchase seperately.
