Overview:

The Clutch Masters FX400 Clutch Kit is engineered for enthusiasts seeking a high-performance, durable clutch solution for their 2003 to 2005 Dodge Neon SRT-4. Designed to excel in both extreme street driving and competitive road or drag racing, this kit offers a significant upgrade over the factory clutch system. It combines a high-leverage pressure plate with a custom sprung ceramic disc to deliver exceptional holding power and heat dissipation, ensuring consistent performance under demanding conditions.

This kit is ideal for drivers who require a clutch capable of handling increased torque without sacrificing drivability. Whether you’re pushing your Neon SRT-4 on the street or the strip, the FX400 provides rapid engagement and reliable durability for aggressive driving styles.

Key Features:

The FX400 Clutch Kit incorporates advanced technology and materials to meet the needs of performance enthusiasts. Key features include:

• Hi-Leverage pressure plate for increased clamping force and improved pedal feel
• Sprung ceramic disc available in 6-puck or 8-puck configurations to suit different driving preferences
• Sprung hub design provides moderate dampening, enhancing street friendliness compared to solid hub designs
• Exceptional torque capacity—up to 170% greater than the original equipment clutch
• Rapid heat dissipation to maintain consistent performance during high-stress driving
• Solid friction rivet design for quick clutch engagement and improved responsiveness
• Premium ceramic friction material reduces clutch chatter and enhances durability
• Steel flywheel included for increased strength and improved thermal management

Construction & Design:

The FX400 kit features a robust construction tailored for extreme duty applications. The pressure plate is designed with a hi-leverage mechanism to maximize clamping force without excessive pedal effort. The ceramic disc is custom-built with a sprung hub that absorbs drivetrain vibrations and torque spikes, improving drivability and reducing harsh engagement characteristics common in race-only clutches.

The ceramic friction material is selected for its durability and ability to withstand high temperatures, ensuring long service life even under aggressive use. The steel flywheel included in the kit offers enhanced strength and better heat management compared to stock aluminum flywheels, contributing to overall clutch system reliability.

Performance & Sound

The FX400’s 6-puck ceramic disc delivers a fast and aggressive clutch engagement, which may produce some chatter during first gear and reverse shifts. This characteristic is typical of high-performance ceramic clutches and is a trade-off for the rapid engagement and superior holding power. The sprung hub design helps moderate this effect, making it more suitable for street use than solid hub alternatives.

Installation & Fitment:

This clutch kit is a direct fit for 2003 to 2005 Dodge Neon SRT-4 models. Installation requires standard clutch replacement procedures and may necessitate professional installation to ensure proper alignment and operation. The kit includes all necessary components to facilitate a complete clutch system upgrade without additional parts.

• 6-puck ceramic sprung disc

The Clutch Masters FX400 Clutch Kit is perfect for Dodge Neon SRT-4 owners who demand a clutch system capable of handling increased power and torque for street performance, road racing, or drag racing. It suits drivers who want a durable, high-capacity clutch with quick engagement and improved heat resistance, while maintaining reasonable street drivability.
