Product Description

The Clutch Masters 08520-HD0F is an FX250 series single disc clutch kit designed for the 2017-2021 Honda Civic Type R (FK8) equipped with the 2.0L K20C1 DOHC VTEC Turbo engine and 6-speed manual transmission. The Civic Type R produces 306 horsepower from the factory, and owners who have added a tune, downpipe, intake, intercooler, or other bolt-on modifications quickly approach the holding capacity limits of the factory clutch. The FX250 provides a meaningful increase in holding capacity over stock while maintaining the smooth, street-friendly engagement characteristics that make it suitable for daily driving - an important consideration for Type R owners who use their vehicles as daily commuters as well as weekend track cars.

The dual-friction disc uses Clutch Masters' proprietary Fiber-Tough formula button material on the pressure plate side for high grip and heat resistance, paired with a steel-backed organic friction lining on the flywheel side for smooth engagement characteristics. This combination delivers noticeably more holding capacity than a full-face organic disc while avoiding the harsh engagement and chatter that ceramic and full Fiber-Tough discs produce. The sprung hub absorbs driveline vibration for a refined feel during normal driving, and the dampened disc is designed to work with the factory dual-mass flywheel, meaning no flywheel replacement is needed for installation.

The Power Plus I pressure plate uses Clutch Masters' Hi-Leverage self-adjusting design to maximize clamping force with only a slight increase in pedal pressure over stock, protecting the crankshaft thrust bearing from excessive loads. This is a complete kit including the release bearing, pilot bearing, and alignment tool. For Type R owners seeking higher holding capacity for more aggressively modified builds - turbo upgrades, methanol injection, or builds targeting 400+ horsepower - Clutch Masters offers the FX300 (08520-HDTZ), FX350 (08520-HDFF), and FX400 (08520-HDC6 / 08520-HDCL) variants on the same platform.
