Nissan Micra K11 CG Motorsport Stage 2 Kev-Tek Performance Clutch Kit

The CG Motorsport Stage 2 Kev-Tek Performance Clutch Kit is designed for modified Nissan Micra K11s that have progressed beyond the capabilities of a Stage 1 clutch but still require a clutch suitable for regular road use.

Using CG Motorsport's Kev-Tek friction material combined with an uprated pressure plate, Stage 2 provides increased clamping force and up to 30% greater torque capacity over stock, while retaining more progressive engagement than a full paddle-style competition clutch.

Ideal for fast-road K11s, moderately tuned engines and lower-power forced-induction applications where additional clutch capacity is required without moving to an aggressive track-focused setup.

Stage 2 – The Middle Ground

Stage 2 sits between the road-focused characteristics of Stage 1 and the more aggressive nature of the Stage 3 clutch.

The uprated pressure plate provides increased clamping force, while the Kev-Tek friction material is designed to provide strong holding capacity without the harsh engagement normally associated with a full paddle racing clutch.

Compared with Stage 1, you should expect:

• A Firmer Clutch Pedal
• A Sharper Bite Point
• Increased Torque Capacity
• More Positive Engagement
• Improved Performance During Faster Gear Changes

It remains suitable for road use, but customers should expect it to feel noticeably more performance-orientated than a standard replacement or Stage 1 clutch.

Kev-Tek Friction Material

The Stage 2 drive plate uses CG Motorsport's Kev-Tek friction material, selected to provide increased performance while maintaining relatively progressive engagement.

This makes Stage 2 particularly well suited to vehicles which still see regular road mileage but require additional clutch capacity due to engine modifications.

CG Motorsport's grooved and slotted friction design also helps manage surface temperature and distributes additional load across the drive plate.

Which Clutch Stage Do I Need?

Stage 1 – Up to 20% Increase in Torque Over Stock

Ideal for daily-driven cars with mild performance upgrades.

Provides increased clamping force while retaining a soft, easy-to-modulate bite and an OEM-like pedal feel.

Best suited to mildly modified naturally aspirated vehicles and customers prioritising everyday drivability.

Stage 2 – Up to 30% Increase in Torque Over Stock

Designed for fast-road vehicles with moderate performance upgrades.

Provides greater clamping force with a firmer pedal and sharper bite point than Stage 1.

Recommended for low-boost / lower-power forced-induction applications, moderately tuned naturally aspirated engines and vehicles seeing occasional track use.

For many modified road-going K11s, Stage 2 provides the best compromise between additional holding capacity and everyday usability.

Stage 3 – Up to 50% Increase in Torque Over Stock

Designed for track-focused vehicles and cars with significant performance upgrades.

Provides the highest clamping force of the three options, accompanied by a firm pedal and solid, positive engagement.

Better suited to applications where outright holding capacity is prioritised over everyday refinement.

⚠️ K11 Clutch Size Guide

Please check your vehicle specification carefully before ordering.

The Nissan Micra K11 was fitted with different clutch sizes and spline configurations depending on engine and generation.

Pre-Facelift CG10
160mm / 16 Spline

Pre-Facelift CG13
180mm / 18 Spline

1st Facelift CG10
180mm / 18 Spline

1st Facelift CG13
180mm / 18 Spline

2nd Facelift CG10
180mm / 18 Spline

2nd Facelift CGA3
180mm / 18 Spline

Due to the age of these vehicles, engines and transmissions may have been replaced or swapped during their lifetime.

Registration year alone should not be relied upon where there is any uncertainty regarding the gearbox currently fitted to the vehicle.

We recommend confirming the existing clutch diameter and input shaft spline count before ordering if the vehicle's drivetrain history is unknown.

Release Bearing

Where the vehicle uses a conventional mechanical release bearing, the appropriate release bearing is included within the clutch kit.

Concentric Slave Cylinders (CSC) are NOT included.

If your application uses a concentric slave cylinder, this must be purchased separately where required.

⚠️ 500-Mile Bedding-In Period Required

A minimum 500-mile bedding-in period is required after installation.

During this period, the clutch should be used progressively to allow the friction surfaces to establish an even contact pattern.

During the first 500 miles, avoid:

• Hard Launches
• Full-Power Acceleration
• Aggressive Gear Changes
• Excessive Clutch Slipping
• Repeated High-Load Starts
• Track Use

Correct bedding-in is important for achieving the intended performance and service life of the clutch.

Installation

Professional installation by a suitably qualified technician is strongly recommended.

Before installing the new clutch, the flywheel should be carefully inspected for:

• Excessive Wear
• Heat Spots
• Cracking
• Scoring
• Uneven Friction Surface

The flywheel should be resurfaced or replaced where necessary.

The clutch operating mechanism, release bearing, cable or hydraulic system and surrounding components should also be inspected while the transmission is removed.

Incorrect installation, an unsuitable flywheel surface or faults elsewhere within the clutch operating system can cause symptoms which may incorrectly appear to be clutch failure.

CG Motorsport 90-Day Manufacturer Warranty

CG Motorsport performance clutch kits are supplied with a 90-day mechanical warranty, subject to the manufacturer's warranty terms and conditions.

Performance clutches can naturally exhibit characteristics including increased noise, judder or chatter depending on the clutch specification and vehicle. These characteristics are not necessarily considered manufacturing defects and may not be covered under warranty.

Warranty coverage may be invalidated where the clutch has:

• Been operated beyond its recommended power or torque capacity
• Been incorrectly installed
• Been modified
• Been subjected to misuse or abuse
• Been transferred or sold to another party
• Been damaged by surrounding components or installation faults

Proof of purchase will be required for any warranty claim.

Please contact us before removing or returning a clutch which you believe may be defective so that the appropriate warranty procedure can be followed.

Labour, removal, installation and other consequential costs are not automatically covered by the manufacturer's warranty and should not be assumed to form part of a successful claim.
