Clutch Masters FX350 Single Disc Clutch Kit 04-05 Baja / 04-05 Forester | 110% Holding Capacity Increase | Street/Race Clutch Kit
Overview
The Clutch Masters FX350 Single Disc Clutch Kit is engineered for Subaru Baja (2004-2005) and Forester (2004-2005) models, delivering a significant 110% increase in holding capacity over stock clutches. Designed for serious street enthusiasts who also enjoy occasional track use, this clutch system handles highly tuned naturally aspirated engines with cylinder head modifications, as well as medium-boost turbo or supercharged setups and up to 100 horsepower of nitrous oxide. It strikes a balance between durability and aggressive engagement, making it ideal for drivers seeking enhanced performance without sacrificing drivability.
At the core of the FX350 is the Power Plus I heavy-duty pressure plate paired with Clutch Masters’ Fiber-Tough friction material. This combination provides a robust yet reliable clutch feel, with a slightly more aggressive engagement than the FX300 model. The kit includes a heavy-duty sprung hub and other OEM or better components to ensure longevity and consistent performance. Clutch Masters’ engineering philosophy focuses on closing the gap between longevity and drivability, offering Subaru owners a clutch that can withstand spirited driving and track demands.
For Subaru owners, this clutch kit offers a tangible upgrade in holding power and engagement precision, essential for extracting maximum performance from modified engines. Whether you’re pushing a naturally aspirated build with cams or running forced induction with moderate boost, the FX350 delivers the confidence and durability needed for both street and weekend track use. Its slightly more aggressive engagement and potential for chatter are tradeoffs for the increased holding capacity, making it a preferred choice for enthusiasts who prioritize performance.
