The clutch stage of this kit is Stage 1, which is specifically designed for vehicles with mild modifications or those seeking a more reliable and durable replacement for the OEM clutch. The Stage 1 rating indicates that this clutch kit can handle moderate increases in torque and horsepower, making it suitable for daily drivers that may occasionally enjoy spirited driving sessions.

The 'Daily Plus' usage classification further emphasizes the kit's suitability for everyday driving.

This clutch kit comes with a single clutch disc which is designed with a full face disc style. This design ensures a large friction area for improved engagement and smoother operation. The sprung hub style further aids in reducing drivetrain shock during engagement, providing a more comfortable driving experience and extending the lifespan of the drivetrain components.

Included in the kit are essential components for installation, such as a throw-out bearing, alignment tool, and a pilot bushing made of durable steel. These inclusions ensure that you have everything needed for a hassle-free installation process, saving you time and effort. It's worth noting that the pilot bushing is made from steel, offering excellent durability and long service life.

Despite its comprehensive feature set, this clutch kit does not include a flywheel.
