Clutches

The clutch connects and disconnects the engine from the gearbox, and an upgraded clutch kit is a common next step once a car's power or use outgrows the factory unit. Chicane Australia carries single and twin plate clutch kits, clutch and flywheel packages, and twin plate service kits from Xtreme Clutch, Ogura Racing (ORC), Wagner Tuning and Clutchmasters. Current applications include the Honda Civic Type R (FK8/FL5), Ford Focus ST and RS, BMW M2, M3 and M4, Subaru WRX STI and Honda K-Series engines. This range sits within our Drivetrain category.

Choosing the Right Part

Chassis or engine code: Clutch kits are listed against specific applications. Examples include Civic Type R FK8/FL5, Focus ST (LW/LZ) and Focus RS (LZ), BMW M2 (G87), M3 (G80/G81) and M4 (G82/G83), and Honda K20/K24 engines. Match the code on the listing to your vehicle.
Gearbox: Some kits are specific to one transmission. For example, the ORC 659D kit for the Subaru WRX STI (2002–2021) is listed for the 6-speed.
Single or twin plate: The range includes single plate kits such as the ORC Metal Series ORC409 and twin plate kits from Xtreme Clutch, Wagner Tuning, ORC and Clutchmasters.
Friction material and hub: Listings state the disc type, such as solid organic or sprung ceramic in the Xtreme 230mm twin plate kits.
Flywheel: Some packages include a flywheel and others are clutch only. Check what each listing includes.
Service kits: Replacement service kits are matched to a specific spline and release type. The Xtreme twin plate service kit, for example, is listed as 24x25.4 spline, 12mm pull type.

Installation & What You'll Need

Fitting a clutch means removing the gearbox, so installation by a professional is recommended. Before installation, check whether your kit includes a flywheel and whether new flywheel or pressure plate bolts are needed. These are available in Flywheel and Drivetrain Bolts. Follow the clutch manufacturer's instructions for installation and bedding in.
