Clutch Masters 17-21 Honda Civic Type-R 2.0L FX250 Clutch Kit
Clutch Masters 08520-HD0F is the FX250 single disc clutch kit for the 2017-2021 Honda Civic Type R FK8 with the 2.0L turbo. It is the one most owners pick when the factory clutch starts to slip after an intake, downpipe and tune, or when the original disc is simply worn out from launches and autocross runs. It keeps the light pedal and easy engagement of a single disc while adding a lot more grip, so the car still drives like a daily.
The FK8 routes the K20C1's torque through a single dry clutch to the six-speed and helical limited-slip differential. Once boost goes up, the factory disc is the first part to give. The FX250 uses Clutch Masters' Power Plus I heavy-duty pressure plate and a hybrid disc: Fiber Tough material on the side that faces the pressure plate and steel-backed organic material on the flywheel side. The Fiber Tough face adds bite, while the organic face keeps engagement smooth and gentle on the flywheel. Clutch Masters rates it at 110 percent more holding capacity than stock and builds it for the street enthusiast or weekend racer with a spirited driving style. They place it above the FX100 and FX200 for grip without losing street manners.
Log a third gear pull and compare engine speed with vehicle speed; a sudden rpm jump as boost builds is clutch slip. Bleed the clutch hydraulics and check that the slave travels fully before you condemn the disc, and look for oil at the bellhousing that would contaminate a new clutch. Our slipping diagnosis guide covers the process, and the shift flare vs slip guide helps you read the log.
Clutch Masters lists 08520-HD0F for the 2017-2021 Honda Civic 2.0L Turbo Type R, the full FK8 run. It does not fit the 2023-up FL5 Type R, the Civic Si or the 1.5L turbo Civic, which use different clutches. If your car has a swapped gearbox or an aftermarket flywheel already, send us the year and VIN and we will check before it ships.
Choosing a stage: the FX250 suits a tuned street car. The FX350 08520-HDFF steps up for more power and regular track days, the FX400 6-puck ceramic kit is for drag launches and big boost, and the 725 street twin is the answer for big turbo builds that still see the street.

Yes. Clutch Masters lists it for the full 2017-2021 FK8 Civic Type R. It does not fit the 2023 and newer FL5.
Yes. The organic flywheel-side face keeps engagement smooth, and pedal effort is only slightly higher than stock. It is built for street cars that see the occasional track day.
Yes, as long as it is flat and resurfaced. If it is heat-checked or out of spec, the Clutch Masters steel flywheel is a direct option.
The FX350 uses a more aggressive disc for more holding power and track use. The FX250 is the better choice for a tuned street car where drivability matters most.
At least 500 miles of normal driving with no launches or full-throttle shifts so the friction faces bed in evenly.
