Clutch Masters FX400 6 Puck Single Disc Clutch Kit 04-05 Baja / 04-05 Forester / 02-05 WRX / 91-94 Legacy | 170% Holding Capacity | High-Performance Clutch Kit
Overview
The Clutch Masters FX400 6 Puck Single Disc Clutch Kit is engineered for Subaru enthusiasts seeking a high-holding capacity clutch system suitable for aggressive street driving and road or drag racing applications. Designed specifically for select Subaru models including the 2004-2005 Baja, 2004-2005 Forester, 2002-2005 WRX, and 1991-1994 Legacy, this clutch kit delivers a significant 170% increase in holding capacity over stock units. It is ideal for drivers pushing their engines to higher torque levels who require a clutch that can handle extreme duty without sacrificing too much street drivability.
At the core of the FX400 system is the Power Plus I heavy-duty pressure plate paired with a custom sprung ceramic disc featuring a 6-puck configuration. This design philosophy balances aggressive engagement with moderate dampening, thanks to the sprung hub, which reduces harshness and driveline shock compared to solid hub designs. Clutch Masters’ use of premium ceramic friction material ensures rapid heat dissipation and durability under demanding conditions, making this kit stand out in the performance clutch market.
For Subaru owners, this clutch kit translates to confident power delivery and enhanced durability during spirited driving or competitive events. The 6-puck ceramic disc provides quick engagement and strong holding power, though it may produce some chatter during initial engagement, a tradeoff for its aggressive performance. This clutch is best suited for modified or high-torque setups rather than stock or near-stock vehicles, where the engagement characteristics may be too abrupt for daily driving comfort.
