South Bend South Bend Clutch Stage 2 Endurance Kit for Porsche 996 C2/C4 3.6L 1998-2005
$1497.44
Free Shipping

If you’re looking to upgrade your Porsche 996 C2 or C4, this South Bend Clutch Stage 2 Endurance Clutch Kit is a solid choice. It’s designed specifically for the 3.6L models from 1998 to 2005, so you know it’s going to fit right without any hassle. Trust me, as a gearhead, I appreciate when a part just works without the headaches.

This kit is not just about getting you from point A to B; it’s built for performance. The single clutch disc measures 240mm and is made from a blend of organic and ceramic materials. This means you get the best of both worlds—great grip and durability. The full face design helps with even pressure distribution, which can really make a difference when you’re pushing your car on a twisty road or at the track.

One thing I really like is that it comes with an alignment tool, so you won’t be fumbling around trying to get everything lined up during installation. And while it doesn’t include a flywheel or mounting hardware, it does come with a standard throwout bearing, which is a nice touch. You’ll want to make sure you have the other bits on hand, but that’s pretty standard for most clutch jobs.

Now, let’s talk about the specs. The input shaft diameter is 1.03 inches, and it has 23 splines—this is crucial for compatibility, and it’s all spot-on for the 996. And with a diaphragm pressure plate style, you can expect a solid pedal feel without too much effort. It’s a good balance, especially if you’re driving this beauty daily.

Overall, if you’re serious about performance and want a clutch that can handle the heat, this kit is a great pick. It’s backed by South Bend, a family-owned business with four generations of expertise in the game. They know their stuff, and it shows in the quality of their products.
