Clutch Masters 01-06 Acura CL 3.2L / 03-06 Honda Accord 3.0L FX250 Clutch Kit w/Alum FW & FT Disc
Clutch Masters part 08028-HD0F-A is the FX250 clutch kit packaged with an aluminum flywheel for the six-speed V6 Hondas and Acuras: Accord 3.0L coupes and sedans with the manual gearbox, the Acura CL 3.2L and the 2004-2006 Acura TL 3.2L. It is the pick for owners whose factory clutch is worn out or starting to slip after mild bolt-ons, who drive the car every day, and who want more grip without the grabby feel of a puck or full race disc.
The FX250 uses a hybrid disc. The side that meets the pressure plate is faced with Clutch Masters Fiber-Tough material for heat resistance and bite, while the flywheel side uses steel-backed organic friction for a smoother, more progressive takeup. A Power Plus I heavy-duty pressure plate supplies the extra clamp load. Clutch Masters describes the FX250 as the clutch for a street enthusiast or weekend racer with a spirited driving style, holding more than a full-faced Kevlar disc while keeping the street manners of its milder FX100 and FX200 kits. In practice that means a pedal feel and engagement close to stock, with enough margin for intake, exhaust and tuning upgrades on the J30 or J32. The included aluminum flywheel trims rotating weight, so the engine picks up revs quicker on downshifts.
With the engine warm, cruise in fourth near 2,500 rpm and floor it. A tach needle that rises faster than the speedometer confirms slip. Next check pedal free play and the clutch fluid reservoir level; a low or dark reservoir and a pedal that sinks suggest the master or slave cylinder. Also look for engine oil or gear oil dripping from the bellhousing inspection area, because a leak will glaze a new disc in short order. If you are weighing a clutch job against other drivetrain work, read our automatic vs manual transmission repair cost guide, and if the gearbox itself is noisy, see what to check on a used transmission before you put a new clutch behind a tired unit.
Our listing names the 2001-2006 Acura CL 3.2L and 2003-2006 Honda Accord 3.0L. The Clutch Masters application chart for 08028-HD0F-A lists the Acura CL 3.2L, the 2004-2006 Acura TL 3.2L and the 2003-2007 Honda Accord 3.0L. It fits manual-transmission cars only. Honda changed gearbox and flywheel details across these V6 years, so check the transmission code stamped on your case or send us the year and VIN and we will confirm it.

Yes. Clutch Masters designed it to keep the street friendly feel of its milder kits. The organic flywheel side gives a smoother takeup than the FX350 or puck-style discs.
No. The chart for this part lists the 2004-2006 TL 3.2L. The 2007-2008 TL Type-S 3.5L six-speed uses a different Clutch Masters part number.
A lighter flywheel can make gear rattle at idle more noticeable and changes how the car feels pulling away. It is normal and does not indicate a problem.
Drive at least 500 miles in normal stop-and-go traffic before any hard launches. Avoid full-throttle shifting and engine braking during that period so the friction surfaces seat.
