If you're in the market for a clutch that can handle both the daily grind and some spirited driving, the ACT Heavy Duty/Performance Street Sprung Kit FC2-HDSS is worth a look. This kit combines the best of both worlds, featuring ACT's popular heavy-duty pressure plate and a performance street disc that really knows how to deliver when you need it most.
What sets this pressure plate apart is its unique diaphragm design. It ramps up the clamp load, which means you get a solid feel without sacrificing longevity. They put these diaphragms through a serious four-stage heat-treating process, so you know they’re built to last. Plus, the precision cover stampings ensure that everything stays rigid and consistent, even under pressure.
Now, let’s talk about the performance street disc. It’s made from high-quality organic materials with a good dose of copper, which helps with heat transfer. This means you can push your ride a bit harder without worrying about fade. The steel-backed lining adds some serious durability, and the reduced marcel allows for quicker shifts. If you’ve ever been caught in a sticky situation trying to shift gears, you’ll appreciate this feature.
Installation is straightforward, and if you need a hand, you can find the install instructions here. Just make sure you have everything you need before diving in.
