Description
The EXEDY Clutch Kits - Single – 1990–1996 Nissan 300ZX is tailored to 1990–1996 Nissan 300ZX and is best considered when the goal is reliable torque transfer, predictable engagement, and hardware appropriate for daily-driven and enthusiast street applications that need dependable engagement and OE-correct fitment.
EXEDY Engineering Background
Founded in Japan in 1923, EXEDY built its reputation as Daikin Clutch before becoming one of the best-known global names in clutch and driveline engineering. Its background spans OEM supply and purpose-built performance hardware, giving the brand unusual depth from factory-style service parts to multi-plate racing systems.
Driveline Role
EXEDY single-disc performance systems target modified cars that have outgrown an OE clutch but do not require the mass, cost, or engagement behavior of a multi-plate assembly. Depending on the series, EXEDY combines higher clamp load with organic or cerametallic friction and a sprung hub to manage driveline shock.
This category suits street/track cars, autocross builds, and moderate-power projects where response and thermal margin matter but the car still needs to remain manageable in normal driving.
Configuration
- EXEDY Part Number: 06046

Selection Notes
For 1990–1996 Nissan 300ZX, this configuration makes the most sense when its intended duty matches the vehicle's actual power and use. Avoid overspecifying clutch aggressiveness: the best setup is the one that maintains the needed torque reserve while preserving usable modulation and protecting the rest of the driveline.
Specifications & Service Notes
- Clamp Load: Stage 1/2 covers are designed around roughly 40% higher clamping load than the genuine part
- Pedal Effort: Typical Stage 1/2 increase is approximately 20–35%, application dependent
- Flywheel Compatibility: Stage 1/2 generally use the OEM flywheel unless noted; Hyper systems include/require their dedicated flywheel
- Certification: EXEDY Stage 1, Stage 2 and Lightweight Flywheel products are SFI 1.1 certified
- Vehicle Application: 1990–1996 Nissan 300ZX
- EXEDY SKU: 06046
Fitment note: Because clutch fitment is sensitive to transmission and flywheel changes, verify the complete vehicle configuration before purchase. Modified swaps or previously converted flywheel systems may require a different EXEDY part than a stock vehicle.
