The RPS "Stage 3" Twin Disc Carbon Clutch was especially made for extreme horsepower applications. The clutch is rated up to 700 lb/ft by the manufacture and has been used in applications exceeding 1000 crankshaft horsepower.

The twin disc design uses a proprietary design which solves the problem associated with other clutches using carbon for friction liners. Most manufactures (Exedy, Carbonetics, etc.) use discs with carbon liners that mesh to steel. By allowing the carbon surface to interface with steel, the extreme heat from the friction transfers to the steel causing the steel surfaces to warp. By warping, these surfaces can lead to rapid wear of the carbon disc. In addition, this design leads to very static rough clutch engagement which makes street driving extremely difficult.

The RPS twin disc design uses two discs with a floating mid plate that features specially made high density carbon fiber surfaces on both the mid plate and mid plate side of the discs. This enables the clutch to have the extreme holding power required for high horsepower applications. On the reverse sides of each disc (flywheel and pressure plate side) a high grade organic / Kevlar liner is used. This design along with the smooth carbon-carbon interfacing surfaces allow the clutch to have very good driveability - something typically unheard of for a power that has the holding power of this clutch.

The rest of the clutch features high quality manufacturing that the RPS clutch is known for including a billet pressure plate cover and flywheel.

This clutch is a direct fit application for 1991-96 NSX. 1997-2005 NSXes will require the NA2 NSX-R input shaft for installation & 1991-96 flywheel bolts.

optional clutch damper valve delete hose: hose eliminates the factory clutch damper valve block. Ideal for race applications where frequent clutch shifts may result in slower clutch operation resulting in reduced clutch life.
