Performance Toyota Corolla Clutch For Higher Torque and Power

Performance Toyota corolla clutch is used to add extra horsepower to a Toyota Corolla. If you want to enhance the holding power of the factory transmission and clutch set up, a performance clutch assembly is the right option because only this can handle the extra torque. Performance clutch kits include a pressure plate, throw-out bearing, pilot bearing, clutch alignment and the clutch itself.

Toyota Corolla Clutch: Important Parts

A good performance Toyota Corolla clutch offers substantially increased power with a small increase in pedal pressure. The manufacturers of performance clutches design heavy duty clutches with a very high clamp load. They re-engineer the clutch kit for high performance street and racing use.

High Torque Clutch Cover: Performance clutch kits are designed to achieve an around 30% increase in clamp load as compared to factory-fitted kits. These clutch covers are made of ductile materials so that one can achieve high burst strength at all temperature ranges.

Aluminum Flywheels: A performance clutch is an excellent upgrade for a Toyota Corolla. The steel flywheels that come with the Toyota Corolla are prone to shattering under very aggressive driving conditions. Performance clutch kits come with aluminum flywheels that are good for road racers who look for quicker revs. These flywheels also complement turbocharged cars that experience lags.

High Torque Organic Clutch Plate: High-torque organic clutch plates have very high heat resistant properties. These plates are ideal for tracks and street use, since they are made of high-strength fibers and heavy duty springs.

Clutch Release Bearing: The clutch release bearing in a performance Toyota Corolla clutch kit is made to handle high torque and offers quiet and reliable performance.

Fitting Toyota Corolla Clutch - Opt For A Professional

It is better to enlist the services of a professional to get the clutch kit installed because one has to remove the existing transmission to install the new clutch kit. Once the transmission is removed, one has to remove the stock setup and install the new performance kit, using a clutch alignment tool. One also needs to ensure that the flywheel is clean in order to prevent slipping during gear shifts.
