Clutch Masters 17-20 Fiat 124 Spider 1.4L Turbo FX250 Dual Friction Organic/Fiber Disc Clutch Kit
Clutch Masters 05703-HD0F is the FX250 clutch kit for the 2017-2020 Fiat 124 Spider with the 1.4L MultiAir turbo and the manual gearbox, Abarth included. Owners usually find it after the factory clutch begins slipping in third or fourth when the turbo comes on, after a tune or intercooler upgrade has raised boost, or when the car is going to autocross and track days where repeated hard launches cook a stock disc. It is a dual-friction kit: two different facings on one disc, chosen to hold more torque while keeping the car easy to drive on the street.
The 124 Spider is rear-wheel drive, so the clutch sits at the back of the turbo four, ahead of the gearbox and driveshaft. A hydraulic release system frees the disc when you press the pedal and lets the pressure plate clamp it back to the flywheel when you let go. A small turbo engine with a strong midrange puts a sharp load on the disc each time boost builds. The FX250 uses the Clutch Masters Power Plus I heavy-duty pressure plate for more clamp force, Fiber Tough facing on the pressure plate side to resist heat, and steel-backed organic facing on the flywheel side for a gentle takeup. A Marcel spring wafer under the facings smooths the bite point. Clutch Masters rates the system at 110 percent more holding capacity than stock. The kit includes the disc, pressure plate, release bearing, an alignment tool and an instruction card, roughly 15 lb shipped.
With the engine warm, pick fourth gear around 2,000 rpm and go to full throttle on a safe road. If the tach races ahead of road speed, the disc is slipping; our slipping diagnosis guide lays out the steps and what else can mimic it. A clutch that will not fully release is a different problem, often air or a leak in the hydraulics, so bleed it before deciding on a new kit. If you are weighing the cost of doing the job, our manual versus automatic repair cost breakdown puts the labor in context.
This listing fits the 2017-2020 Fiat 124 Spider with the 1.4L turbo and manual transmission. Clutch Masters lists it for the 124 Spider 1.4L turbo across those years, and its matching flywheel is listed for both the 124 Spider and the Abarth. It does not fit the six-speed automatic version, the front-drive Fiat 500 or 500 Abarth, or the Mazda MX-5 even though the cars share a platform. If your car has had an engine or gearbox swap, send us the year and VIN before ordering. Browse more parts in our rebuild kits section.
