Clutch Masters 242mm (2600lbs) FX400 Clutch Kit 6-Puck w/Steel Flywheel Subaru WRX 2002-2005 / Forester XT 2004-2005 | 15106-HDC6-SK

Part #: 15106 - HDC6 - SK. The Clutch Masters 'Big Boy' kit is a top - notch choice for your 2002 - 2005 WRX. It's engineered to deliver peak performance and smooth engagement without stressing your OEM transmission. It comes with a 242mm (9.5in) clutch housing and a specially - designed 9.5LB aluminum flywheel. The 2600lb capacity pressure plate offers better performance compared to stock (1500 lbs) and most aftermarket kits (2000 lbs). The larger 9.5in surface area boosts the clutch disc's performance, provides great daily drivability, and often extends disc life. This kit features a heavy - duty pressure plate and a 4 - puck ceramic sprung disc for quick engagement and strong holding power. However, it has a harsh, aggressive clutch engagement. The FX400 is ideal for highly - modified 02 - 05 WRXs with limited street use and upgraded gear sets, making it a perfect pick for road - racing or time attack WRX tuners. Torque Capacity: 475+ ft/lbs. Kits include a 9.5LB aluminum flywheel, 2600lb high - clamp pressure plate, performance clutch disc, alignment tool, and all necessary hardware and bearings.

Using this clutch kit is straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is the right model (2002 - 2005 Subaru WRX or 2004 - 2005 Forester XT). Before installation, check all the parts in the kit, including the 9.5LB aluminum flywheel, 2600lb high - clamp pressure plate, performance clutch disc, alignment tool, and hardware. When installing, follow the standard clutch installation procedures. Remember, this kit has a harsh and aggressive clutch engagement, so be prepared for a different driving feel. For daily driving, take it easy at first to get used to it. In terms of maintenance, regularly check the clutch components for wear. Keep an eye on the pressure plate and clutch disc. If you notice any strange noises or a decrease in performance, it might be time to inspect the parts more closely. Also, make sure all the hardware is tightened properly to avoid any issues.
