Does the EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch for the Focus need a new flywheel?

Yes. Turn 14 notes that the factory dual-mass flywheel must be changed to the EXEDY ZF502 when this performance clutch is fitted, and that six new crank bolts are needed from a Ford dealer. Budget for the flywheel and bolts and install them together with the clutch.

Will it fit the SVT Focus?

Turn 14 lists the 07954 for the 2004 SVT Focus with the 2.0-liter engine, as well as the 2003-2007 Focus ZX3, ZX4, ZX5, ZTS, ZTW and the 2.3-liter ZX4 ST and ST. All of them use the 225 mm disc and 23-tooth, 26.2 mm input spline.

How much power will the Focus clutch hold?

EXEDY rates the 07954 at 280 lb-ft of torque capacity at the flywheel and 224 lb-ft at the wheels, from 1,566 lb of clamp load. That is well above a stock Zetec or Duratec and suits turbo conversions on moderate boost.

What is the difference between the 07954 and 07954LB?

The 07954LB is the same EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch supplied without a release bearing, for owners who already have a new bearing or prefer to reuse a good one. The 07954 is the complete kit. Disc size, spline and clamp load are the same on both.

Is a cerametallic clutch harsh on a Focus?

It is firmer than the factory clutch, and a gentle pull-away can bring some chatter, softened by the sprung hub. A Focus used for autocross or with a turbo benefits from the heat resistance, while a stock daily driver will be smoother on an organic clutch.

Description

EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch Kit for Mk1 Ford Focus (Thick Disc)

EXEDY’s Stage 2 Cerametallic Clutch Kit for Mk1 Ford Focus covers the 2.0 and 2.3-liter hatchbacks, sedans and wagons of 2003-2007 along with the 2004 SVT Focus, cars that are often turbocharged or built for autocross. The 225 mm thick cerametallic disc is rated at 280 lb-ft at the flywheel, and Turn 14 calls for EXEDY’s ZF502 flywheel in place of the factory dual-mass unit.

Design and Performance

A ductile-cast cover applies 1,566 lb of clamp load to a thick cerametallic disc on a 23-tooth, 26.2 mm spline, rated at 361 lb-ft of clutch torque by EXEDY. Turn 14 notes that the factory dual-mass flywheel must be changed to the EXEDY ZF502 when a performance clutch is fitted, and that six new crank bolts from Ford are needed.

Notes

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
