Clutch Masters FX400 8 Puck Single Disc Clutch Kit 04-05 Baja / 04-05 Forester / 02-05 WRX / 91-94 Legacy | 170% Holding Capacity | High-Durability Clutch Kit
Overview
The Clutch Masters FX400 8 Puck Single Disc Clutch Kit is engineered for Subaru models including the 2004-2005 Baja, 2004-2005 Forester, 2002-2005 WRX, and 1991-1994 Legacy. Designed for enthusiasts seeking a robust upgrade, this clutch kit delivers a significant 170% increase in holding capacity over stock, making it ideal for aggressive street driving and road or drag racing applications. The kit combines a heavy-duty pressure plate with a sprung ceramic disc to balance performance and drivability.
Built around the Power Plus I, Hi-Leverage, Heavy-Duty Pressure Plate, the FX400 system uses premium ceramic friction material in an 8-puck configuration for a less aggressive engagement compared to the 6-puck option. The sprung hub design provides moderate dampening, reducing harshness and clutch chatter common in solid disc setups, which enhances street friendliness without sacrificing durability. This thoughtful engineering approach ensures long life and rapid heat dissipation, critical for Subaru owners pushing their vehicles hard.
For Subaru drivers, this clutch kit offers a reliable solution to handle increased torque and power modifications while maintaining smooth engagement and minimal chatter. The inclusion of a steel flywheel and OEM or better release and pilot bearings ensures a complete, high-quality package that fits precisely and performs consistently. Whether upgrading for spirited street use or competitive motorsports, the FX400 8 Puck kit delivers the durability and engagement Subaru enthusiasts demand.
