Kyosho VZW448 Clutch Bell Improvement for V ONE R4

The Kyosho VZW448 V3 Aluminum Clutch Bell is a solid component swap for those wanting steadier clutch operation in their V ONE R4 cars. Manufactured from aluminium, it offers improved thermal behaviour and reliable service during sustained track sessions.

Compatibility with VZW442-04TG Shoe

The VZW448 is formed to work cleanly with the VZW442-04TG Clutch Shoe, creating consistent contact and helping to limit uneven wear. It is often selected alongside the OS12TG engine in many race builds.

Lightweight Strength of Aluminium

Aluminium combines low mass with structural strength, which can help reduce rotating inertia and keep throttle response sharp while reducing heat buildup at the clutch interface. That makes the VZW448 a sensible upgrade for lap-focused builds.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will the Kyosho VZW448 change clutch feel?

You may notice crisper engagement as aluminium manages heat differently than cast bells. Fine tuning shoe clearance and material remains important to achieve the desired feel.

How often should I inspect the clutch bell?

Check the bell each few race meetings for scoring and deformation, and inspect shoe faces for even wear. Early detection prevents drivetrain issues on the circuit.

Can this bell be used for practice and race days?

Yes, the VZW448 is suitable for both practice runs and race events, offering a balance of longevity and thermal performance when paired with correct shoe choice and setup checks.

Any tips for first-time installers?

Ensure the bell slides fully onto the crank spline without forcing, tighten fasteners to the recommended torque and run a cautious shakedown to confirm there is no rubbing or misalignment.
