Comp Clutch 2002-2005 Subaru WRX Stage 2 – Steelback Brass Plus Clutch Kit (w/o FW – No conversion)

Part Details:

The Competition Clutch Stage 2 – Street Series 2100 Clutch Kit is designed for aggressive street driving and moderate track use, providing approximately an 80% increase in torque capacity over the factory clutch. This makes it an ideal upgrade for vehicles with bolt-on modifications that demand improved holding power while retaining street-friendly behavior.

This kit features Carbon Kevlar friction material with an alloy backing, paired with a performance pressure plate to deliver smooth engagement, excellent heat resistance, and extended clutch life. The result is a well-balanced clutch that performs under load without the harsh engagement of more aggressive race-style setups.

Pressure Plate & Disc Design

The high-torque sprung disc uses Carbon Kevlar facings with anti-burst steel backing for added strength and safety in higher-load applications. This construction improves durability and thermal stability during repeated engagement.

The sprung hub design helps absorb drivetrain shock, reducing stress on transmission components and improving overall drivability compared to rigid disc designs.

Street & Track Engagement Characteristics

Engagement is smooth and progressive, making the 2100 Series well suited for daily-driven vehicles that also see spirited driving or occasional track use. Compared to ceramic or multi-puck clutches, this setup prioritizes control, consistency, and longevity.

A 500-mile break-in period is highly recommended to ensure proper seating of the friction material and to maximize clutch performance and service life.
