If you?re looking to upgrade your ride with something that really delivers, let me tell you about the ACT TL3-HDSS Heavy Duty/Performance Street Sprung Kit. This isn?t just another clutch kit; it?s a game changer for anyone who loves their Toyota Corolla from '88 to '93. I?ve had my fair share of clutches, but this one stands out for a reason.
First off, the Heavy Duty pressure plate is a real beast. ACT has designed it with a unique diaphragm that ramps up the clamp load while keeping deflection to a minimum. What does that mean for you? More clutch life and better performance under pressure. Plus, they heat-treat each diaphragm through a four-stage process, which really cranks up the durability. You can feel the difference when you?re shifting gears; it?s smooth and reliable.
Now, let?s talk about the Performance Street disc. It?s made from high-quality organic materials that have a good amount of copper mixed in. This helps with heat transfer, so you won?t be worrying about fading during those spirited drives. The steel-backed lining adds some serious strength, which is crucial when you?re pushing your Corolla to its limits. And with reduced marcel, you get quicker shifts, which is always a win in my book.
Installation is straightforward, and if you need a hand, you can find the instructions right here. Just a heads up, you won?t find a clutch master cylinder or flywheel included, but everything else you need is packed in, including grease and an alignment tool.
Here?s a quick rundown of what you can expect:
As for the specs, this kit comes with a clutch disc diameter of 7.9 inches (200 mm) and can handle up to 205 ft/lbs of torque. It?s got 21 input splines and fits right on your Corolla without a hitch. Weighing in at just 10.3 lbs, it?s light enough to keep your ride nimble.
In short, if you want a clutch kit that?s built to last and performs like a champ, the ACT TL3-HDSS is worth checking out. It?s a solid upgrade that?ll make your driving experience that much better.
