Description
The EXEDY Stage 2 Cerametallic – Cushion Button Clutch Kit – 1993–1994 Toyota T100 is a focused driveline solution for Cushion Button Clutch Kit – 1993–1994 Toyota T100, aimed at owners who want street-driven, work-duty, towing-conscious, and mildly modified applications where clutch control and heat tolerance matter without piecing together mismatched clutch components.
A Century of Clutch Engineering
With roots in Japan dating to 1923, EXEDY has spent generations engineering clutches and powertrain components for both vehicle manufacturers and the aftermarket. That OEM foundation carries into its performance range, where organic, cerametallic, chromoly, and multi-plate technologies are developed for increasingly demanding street and competition applications.
What This EXEDY Product Does
EXEDY's performance single- and multi-plate systems are intended to raise torque capacity and heat tolerance while matching the engagement characteristics to the car's intended use. Stage 1 uses an organic friction strategy for the most street-friendly behavior; Stage 2 moves to cerametallic friction for harder use; Hyper systems add dedicated flywheel and multi-plate architecture for substantially higher-output builds.
Choose the least aggressive configuration that comfortably covers the engine's torque and heat load. That approach normally gives the best balance of drivability, service life, transmission friendliness, and track durability.
Configuration

Application Recommendation
For Cushion Button Clutch Kit – 1993–1994 Toyota T100, 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.
Technical Overview
- Clamp Load: Stage 1/2 covers are designed around roughly 40% higher clamping load than the genuine part
