If you're looking to upgrade your clutch setup, the ACT Advanced Clutch HD/Perf Street Rigid Kit AR2-HDSD is definitely worth a look. This kit features ACT's Heavy Duty pressure plate, which is a fan favorite among performance enthusiasts. What sets it apart is its unique diaphragm design that not only boosts the clamp load but also minimizes deflection. This means you get a clutch that lasts longer and performs better under stress. Plus, each diaphragm goes through a four-stage heat-treating process, ensuring it can handle the heat when you're pushing your ride to the limits.

The pressure plate is built with precision cover stampings, giving it the rigidity and consistency you want when you're on the road or track. Now, let’s talk about the clutch disc. The performance street rigid-hub discs are made from premium organic materials that have a high copper content, which really helps with heat transfer. And the steel-backed lining? It adds a level of durability that’s hard to beat. The chrome-moly hub is heat-treated, so you know it’s tough enough to handle whatever you throw at it.

One of the best things about this kit is the weight of the street disc. It's designed to be as light as possible, which means quicker shifts and a more engaging driving experience. You get race-proven performance that’s still manageable for everyday use. Just keep in mind that while the pedal effort is light to moderate, you might notice a bit more gear rattle—it's all part of the performance package.
