Part #: KSB03 - HD - DXD - B. For drag racing, when the original design is dual - mass, each kit comes with a Single Mass SFI approved flywheel. This system features a heavy - duty pressure plate modified for a puck - style disc. There's no cushion between the linings, making the clutch pedal travel short and quick. The puck - design disc cuts down on rotational mass and total drive surface area, while upping the pounds per square inch on the friction material's surface. This combo minimizes inertia and speeds up torque transfer from the engine to the wheels. The friction material used in this race - ready product is Graphite Impregnated Ceramic. In tests for durability, reduced chatter, heat transfer, and torque capacity, this compound outperformed all others. Ideal for drag racing, drifting, and limited street use. Torque Rating (at crank): 495 Ft - Lb.
Using this South Bend Clutch drag stage 2 clutch kit is straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is a Subaru WRX from 2002 - 2005 or a Forester XT from 2004 - 2005. When installing, follow the included instructions carefully. This kit is great for drag racing, drifting, but for street use, it's limited. When driving, expect a short and quick clutch pedal travel which can take a bit of getting used to. As for maintenance, keep an eye on the friction material. Check it regularly for signs of wear. If you notice any unusual noises or a change in how the clutch feels, it might be time for a more in - depth inspection. Also, since it's a high - performance part, make sure your vehicle's engine and other components can handle the increased torque.
