Clutch Masters FX400 8 Puck Single Disc Clutch Kit 13-26 BRZ / FRS / 86 | 170% Holding Capacity | High-Durability Clutch Kit

Overview

The Clutch Masters FX400 8 Puck Single Disc Clutch Kit is engineered specifically for the Subaru BRZ, Scion FRS, and Toyota 86 models from 2013 to 2026. Designed for enthusiasts seeking a robust upgrade over the factory clutch, this kit delivers a 170% increase in holding capacity, making it ideal for extreme street driving and road or drag racing applications. It features a sprung ceramic disc with an 8-puck configuration that balances aggressive engagement with street-friendly drivability.

Built around the Power Plus I heavy-duty pressure plate, the FX400 system emphasizes durability and performance.

For Subaru BRZ owners pushing their cars beyond stock performance, this clutch kit offers a significant improvement in engagement feel and holding power without sacrificing street manners. The 8-puck design provides quick, smooth engagement with minimal chatter, making it well-suited for spirited driving and occasional track use. Note that this kit requires pairing with Clutch Masters’ lightweight steel flywheel for optimal performance and durability, addressing a known weak point in the factory setup.
