If you're diving into the world of performance clutches, the ACT HS2-HDSS Heavy Duty/Performance Street Sprung Kit is one that deserves your attention. I've had my fair share of clutches, and let me tell you, this kit stands out for good reason. It combines ACT's most popular heavy-duty pressure plate with a street disc that just feels right underfoot.
The magic really lies in the design of the pressure plate. ACT uses an exclusive diaphragm that ramps up the clamp load while keeping deflection to a minimum. What does that mean for you? Basically, it maximizes clutch life, so you won't be swapping it out every few months. Plus, each diaphragm goes through a four-stage heat-treating process. This isn't just some marketing fluff; it’s all about delivering consistent, reliable performance.
Now, let’s talk about the performance street disc. It’s made from high-quality organic materials and has a good amount of copper mixed in. This helps with heat transfer, which is crucial when you're pushing your car to its limits. The steel-backed lining gives it extra burst strength and durability, so you can trust it to hold up when the pressure's on. ACT has also reduced the marcel, which means quicker shifts—perfect for those moments when you need to drop a gear and go.
Installation is straightforward, and if you need a hand, you can find the install instructions here. It’s a solid choice whether you’re hitting the streets or taking your ride to the track.
