Clutch Masters Nissan 90-96 300Z/300ZX 3.0L Non-T/93-98 Skyline RB25DET (JDM) FX350 Clutch Kit
Clutch Masters 06045-HDFF is an FX350 Fiber-Tough clutch kit that serves two very different Nissans with one part number: the 1990-1996 300ZX (Z32) with the non-turbo 3.0L VG30DE, and the JDM Skyline with the RB25DET push-style clutch. Owners land here when a naturally aspirated Z32 with headers and a tune starts slipping on the top end, or when an imported R33 GTS-T on a little more boost has outgrown its stock clutch but still has to be driven on the street.
The FX350 sits in the middle of the Clutch Masters single disc lineup. It uses the Power Plus I high-leverage heavy duty pressure plate over a steel-backed, segmented Fiber-Tough disc with a heavy duty sprung hub and a marcel spring wafer, and Clutch Masters rates it at a 110 percent increase in holding capacity. Clutch Masters says it holds slightly more than the FX300 but engages a little more aggressively and will produce some chatter.
The intended car is spelled out: a highly tuned naturally aspirated engine with cam and head work, a medium-boost turbo or supercharger setup, or up to about 100 hp of nitrous. That covers a built VG30DE Z32 and a mildly boosted RB25DET well. It is not a big-turbo RB kit. For high boost, look at the ceramic FX400 or a twin disc.
Road test in a high gear from low rpm with full throttle, and look for rpm rising without the car pulling harder. Before you blame the friction, check the clutch master and slave cylinders and flush the fluid; weak hydraulics can mimic slip or cause drag. Look for oil weeping from the rear main or transmission input seal at the bellhousing, and fix any leak first. Our slipping diagnosis guide covers the full road test, and manual vs automatic repair cost helps budget the job.
Our listing covers the 1990-1996 Nissan 300Z and 300ZX non-turbo, which Clutch Masters lists as 3.0L Non-Turbo from 2-89 production. Clutch Masters also lists 06045-HDFF for the 1989-1993 Skyline 2.0L RB20DET and the 1989-1998 Skyline 2.5L RB25DET and 2.6L RB26DETT, all push style. The listing title calls out the 1993-1998 RB25DET JDM car. Pull-type RB setups need a different kit, and the twin turbo 300ZX uses its own clutch, listed here as the Clutch Masters 06046-HDC6 for the 300ZX twin turbo. Because many of these engines have been swapped, confirm push or pull release and send us your year, VIN and engine before ordering. A softer option for the same cars is the 06045-HD0F FX250.

No. Clutch Masters lists 06045-HDFF for the non-turbo 3.0L 300Z and 300ZX from 2-89 production. The twin turbo car uses a different clutch, such as the 06046 series kits.
Clutch Masters lists it for 1989-1998 RB25DET and RB26DETT push-style clutches and the 1989-1993 RB20DET. If your RB uses a pull-type release, it needs a different kit, so confirm your release type and send us the VIN or chassis number before ordering.
Some. Clutch Masters says the FX350 engages a little more aggressively than the FX300 and will produce some chatter. The sprung hub and marcel wafer keep it far more street friendly than a rigid puck disc.
Clutch Masters describes it for highly tuned naturally aspirated engines, medium-boost turbo or supercharged cars, or up to about 100 hp of nitrous. Big-turbo builds should step up to a ceramic or twin disc kit.
Resurface or replace the flywheel, fit the supplied pilot and release bearings, and inspect the release fork, pivot and the rear main seal. If the clutch hydraulics are original, a master and slave cylinder are worth doing while the transmission is out.
