Exedy 2002-2006 Acura RSX Base L4 Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch 4 Puck Disc Incl. HF02 Lightweight FW

For drivers demanding lightning-fast engagement and maximum torque handling on the street or track, the 4-puck variation of Exedy’s Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch is a proven performer. Engineered for applications where hard launches, aggressive shifting, and high heat loads are the norm, this clutch offers the fierce bite and rapid response required by serious enthusiasts.

The 4-puck disc design uses lightweight segments of cerametallic friction material that deliver near-instantaneous engagement. This makes it the ideal choice for turbocharged, high-compression, or heavily tuned builds where slipping is not an option. Compared to its full-face or 6-puck counterparts, the 4-puck layout reduces rotational mass and inertia, enabling the engine to rev more freely while also providing a more direct, uncompromised power transfer to the wheels.

This clutch utilizes Exedy’s proprietary cerametallic formula, specifically developed for high-friction, high-temperature scenarios. The result is a clutch that holds significantly more torque than a traditional organic setup—up to 125% over stock in many cases—while maintaining consistent performance through heat cycles and repeated abuse. Paired with Exedy’s heavy-duty spring center hub and high-clamp load pressure plate, this system ensures durability and shock absorption even under punishing conditions.

Because of the aggressive nature of the 4-puck disc, engagement is firm and may feel abrupt compared to more street-oriented designs. This is a clutch best suited for cars that spend a significant portion of their life at the track, drag strip, or in competition settings. While still usable on the street by experienced drivers, this is not a system built for comfort—it’s built to win.

Exedy is the leading manufacturer of racing clutches in Japan and supplies all six factory vehicle manufacturers' race teams. Unlike our competitors, our clutches and drivetrain components are NOT rebuilt OE or modified stock units. ALL EXEDY racing and performance parts are engineered, designed, and built from the ground up as true motorsport components—in the same facilities that produce our trusted OEM units. EXEDY’s product innovations are patented worldwide and developed in-house using state-of-the-art design, inspection, and testing equipment. Every part is subjected to extensive simulations that mimic the harshest driving conditions to guarantee real-world performance. And before a single part leaves the EXEDY factory, it undergoes both robotic and visual inspection to ensure quality you can stand behind.
