Exedy is the OEM clutch manufacturer for all 11 Japanese car makers as well as most Ford and GM cars. Their leading expertise in manufacturing both OEM and performance clutches makes Exedy a top name when it comes to performance clutch kit.
Designed for high-powered engines, the Exedy Stage 3 Clutch Kit is built primarily for track use only. The Exedy Stage 3 Clutch kit comes in 2 types, Hyper Single Cerametallic or Carbon clutch. The Stage 3 Hyper Single Cerametallic kit includes a 6-puck cerametallic clutch disc. The Stage 3 Carbon kit includes a full-disc carbon fiber clutch disc. The Carbon clutch is strictly recommended for track use only because it will require the clutch to be warmed up to optimal temperature.
Every Exedy Stage 3 Clutch Kit includes a heavy-duty but lightweight forged aluminum pressure plate. The kit also includes a lightweight chromoly flywheel to make a complete kit.
