Clutch Masters FX500 Stage 5 Clutch Kit 6-Puck Subaru STI 2004-2021 | 15017-HDB6

Part #: 15017 - HDB6. The FX500 clutch kits are a game - changer, offering 200 - 400% more holding capacity than stock. With a solid hub, they ensure rapid engagement. This unsprung style disc provides an extremely firm and fast clutch engagement without any slippage. It's not suitable for street - driven STIs. It's the ideal choice for fully - raced or drag - modified STIs with upgraded gear sets. Driving this kit on the street is a real challenge, so don't buy it if you plan to use it daily. The 6 - puck kit dissipates heat better than the 4 - puck one, though the 4 - puck can handle a bit more power. Included in the kit are a pressure plate, clutch disc, throw - out bearing, pilot bearing or bushing (when applicable), and an alignment tool.

Using this Clutch Masters FX500 Stage 5 clutch kit is straightforward if you're working on a fully - raced or drag - modified Subaru STI with upgraded gear sets. First, make sure you have all the parts in the kit: pressure plate, clutch disc, throw - out bearing, pilot bearing or bushing (if needed), and the alignment tool. Follow the standard installation procedures for clutch kits. But remember, this clutch is not for street driving. It's too hard and quick for daily use. If you try to drive it on the street, you'll find it very difficult to handle. As for maintenance, keep an eye on the clutch engagement. If you notice any slippage or abnormal behavior, it might be time to check the components. Also, ensure that the clutch is well - lubricated according to the manufacturer's recommendations to keep it performing at its best.
