Clutch Masters Stage 3 Clutch Kit
2011–2016 Scion tC 2AR-FE Engine
Part #: 16088-HDTZ
Overview
The Clutch Masters Stage 3 Clutch Kit is engineered specifically for the 2011 to 2016 Scion tC equipped with the 2AR-FE engine. Designed to handle increased power demands, this clutch kit offers a significant upgrade over the factory unit with 110% more holding capacity. It is ideal for street enthusiasts and weekend racers who have modified their normally aspirated tC with cylinder head work, hotter camshafts, or moderate forced induction such as medium-boost turbo or supercharger setups. Additionally, it supports applications with up to 100 horsepower of nitrous oxide.
This kit balances enhanced performance with drivability, featuring a pressure plate that only slightly increases pedal effort compared to stock, ensuring smooth engagement and long-lasting durability for spirited driving conditions.
Key Features
The Clutch Masters Stage 3 kit incorporates advanced materials and design elements to deliver reliable, heavy-duty performance for both street and light racing use. Key features include:
- 110% holding capacity over stock for improved torque management
- Power Plus I Pressure Plate with heavy-duty reinforced construction
- Steel-backed segmented Kevlar clutch disc for enhanced durability and heat resistance
- Hi-leverage pressure ring design for consistent clamping force
- Sprung hub and cushioned disc to reduce drivetrain shock and vibration
- Long-life disc material optimized for smooth engagement and pedal feel
- Designed to accommodate moderate power upgrades including forced induction and nitrous
Construction & Design
The clutch disc features a segmented Kevlar friction surface bonded to a steel backing plate, providing superior wear resistance and heat tolerance compared to organic discs. The sprung hub design helps absorb drivetrain shocks, reducing stress on transmission components and improving overall drivability. The Power Plus I pressure plate is reinforced to withstand higher clamp loads without compromising pedal effort, thanks to its hi-leverage pressure ring design. This combination ensures the clutch can handle increased power while maintaining smooth engagement and longevity.
Installation & Fitment
This Stage 3 clutch kit is a direct fit replacement for the 2011–2016 Scion tC with the 2AR-FE engine. Installation requires standard clutch replacement procedures. Please note that the kit does not include a throwout bearing, as the Scion tC uses a slave cylinder and throwout bearing assembly integrated into the OEM setup. It is recommended to inspect and replace the throwout bearing assembly as needed during installation.

What does the ETA date mean?
ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
