Upgrade your 2010-2013 Mazda 3 2.5L DOHC L5-VE with the Action Clutch Stage 4 (1MD) Clutch Kit, Part ACR-0817. Designed for demanding race applications, including drag, road, and drift racing, this performance clutch kit delivers a 170% increase in holding capacity over the factory clutch. It is engineered for low- to mild-horsepower vehicles that require quicker engagement, dependable power transfer, and enhanced control in challenging driving conditions.

The kit includes a heavy-duty single-diaphragm pressure plate, reinforced drive straps, and an unsprung MIBA ceramic clutch disc available in a four- or six-puck configuration. The unsprung ceramic design promotes fast engagement and maximum drivetrain connection, while also introducing clutch chatter during initial operation. Chatter typically decreases after the clutch completes its recommended break-in period. This setup is intended for drivers who prioritize performance and durability over the smooth engagement characteristics of a standard street clutch.

Every Action Clutch kit is quality checked by an experienced engineer before release, helping provide consistent performance and dependable operation. The Stage 4 (1MD) kit is a strong choice for dedicated race vehicles and high-demand applications where reliable clutch control is essential. Professional installation and proper break-in are recommended to help achieve the best service life and performance.
