    Why Choose Exedy Clutches?

    When it comes to clutches, Exedy is one of the most trusted names in the game. They’ve been building clutches for decades and are the go-to supplier for many vehicle manufacturers around the world. That means when you choose Exedy, you’re getting the same quality and reliability that car makers themselves rely on – just with options tailored for everyday drivers, heavy-duty workhorses, and performance builds alike.

    At PPD Performance, we back Exedy because their kits strike the perfect balance between durability and drivability. Whether you’re after an OEM replacement to keep your daily running smoothly, or a heavy-duty upgrade like the Sports Tuff HD kits, you can trust that Exedy has engineered it to handle the conditions we see here in Australia. These clutches aren’t just about withstanding more torque – they’re designed with smooth take-off, consistent pedal feel, and long-term reliability in mind. Combine that with the peace of mind of an Exedy warranty, and you’ve got a clutch that works just as hard as you do.

    Product Range & Compatibility

    Exedy offers one of the broadest clutch ranges on the market, which makes it easy to find the right kit for your vehicle. From OEM replacement clutches that are built to factory specs, through to Sports Tuff and Heavy Duty kits designed for towing, touring and performance, Exedy covers everything from small passenger cars to 4x4s and commercial vehicles.

    A great example is the Exedy Sports Tuff HD Kit for the Toyota Hilux (2005–2015). Built to handle up to 510Nm of torque, it includes a heavy-duty clutch cover, organic disc, release bearing and a single mass flywheel. That makes it a perfect fit for Hilux owners running the 1KDFTV Turbo Diesel who want something stronger than stock but still easy to drive day to day. No matter if you’re driving a Hilux, a Ranger, or a high-powered performance car, chances are Exedy has a kit that’s purpose-built for your needs.

    Performance & Benefits

    One of the biggest advantages of upgrading to an Exedy clutch is the balance of strength and drivability. Heavy-duty kits like the Sports Tuff range deliver increased clamp load, which means more torque capacity and less chance of clutch slip under load. At the same time, the use of an organic friction disc ensures smooth engagement and a predictable pedal feel – so you don’t lose comfort in day-to-day driving.

    For those who tow, tour, or push their vehicles off-road, the benefits are obvious. More holding power means better reliability under stress, and better heat resistance means your clutch is less likely to fade in tough conditions. For performance cars, Exedy’s multi-plate and carbon clutches take things to the next level, handling serious horsepower while still delivering sharp, consistent response. Whatever your application, the key benefit is confidence – knowing your clutch won’t let you down.

    Types & Variants

    Exedy makes it simple to match a clutch to your driving style. Their OEM Replacement range is perfect if you just want a reliable swap for a worn-out factory clutch. Step up to the Sports Tuff Heavy Duty range, and you get the best of both worlds – smooth take-off with much higher torque capacity, ideal for tradies, tourers and off-roaders. The Safari Tuff kits are designed specifically for 4x4s that spend their life in harsh Australian conditions, while the Stage 1–3 Performance clutches are aimed at modified and motorsport vehicles chasing serious grip.

    For many of our customers, the Sports Tuff HD kit is the sweet spot – just like the Hilux kit we stock. It’s tough enough to handle heavy loads and modified setups, but it still drives smoothly around town. That flexibility is what makes Exedy one of the most popular clutch brands in Australia.

    Installation & Fitment

    A common question we get is whether you can install an Exedy clutch yourself. If you’re an experienced DIY mechanic with the right tools, it’s definitely possible, but most customers prefer to leave it to a professional. Clutch replacement means pulling out the gearbox, and that’s no small job. The good news is that Exedy kits are designed to be direct replacements, which means fitment is straightforward for a qualified mechanic.

    In some cases, like the Hilux kit we mentioned earlier, Exedy even supplies a single mass flywheel upgrade to replace the factory dual mass unit. That not only improves durability but also simplifies long-term maintenance. Whenever you fit a new clutch, we always recommend replacing the bearings and flywheel at the same time – it’s inexpensive insurance that helps your new clutch last longer.

    Maintenance & Care

    Once fitted, an Exedy clutch doesn’t need much attention – but how you drive will make all the difference. Avoid riding the clutch, keep heavy towing within reasonable limits, and you’ll get years of trouble-free service. Most heavy-duty Exedy kits are designed to last significantly longer than stock, especially in vehicles that see a lot of work.

    It’s also worth keeping an eye out for the usual signs of wear: slipping under load, changes in pedal feel, or grinding when changing gears. Exedy clutches are tough, but like any mechanical part, they will eventually wear. The good news is that with proper installation and sensible use, they’ll easily outlast cheaper alternatives – and when you need advice or replacement parts, our team at PPD Performance is always here to help.
