The stage 1 clutch kit is manufactured to OE spec and can easily and reliably handle engine power up to 180bhp. For higher power applications please see the uprated clutches below. ( MX5-014 )
The Stage 2 clutch kit is designed for applications where engine or vehicle performance has been upgraded from standard. This clutch offers a higher clamping load to handle increased torque capacity and higher engine RPM, while still maintaining a standard pedal feel. ( MX5-035 )
The Stage 3 and Stage 4 clutch kits combine a heavy-duty cover/pressure plate with a high-performance, four-paddle Cerametalic clutch plate. Despite the heavy-duty pressure plate, the clutch maintains a usable pedal feel, albeit slightly heavier than a standard clutch which makes them very useable on the road and in traffic. The four-paddle Cerametalic clutch plate ensures quick gear changes, maximizing throttle time and making it ideal for track, racing and rally use. ( MX5-038 ) ( MX5-013 )
