If you’re looking to take your Mazda Miata to the next level, the Advanced Clutch HD/Race Rigid 6 Pad Kit (ZM1-HDR6) might just be what you need. This isn’t just any clutch kit; it’s built for those who want serious performance on the track. The heart of this kit is ACT's Heavy Duty pressure plate, which is designed to give you a solid clamp load while minimizing deflection. You can really feel the difference when you’re pushing your car hard. The diaphragm goes through a four-stage heat-treating process, which means it’s tough and built to last.
Now, let’s talk about the 6-pad rigid race discs. These bad boys are crafted from high-quality ceramic friction materials, ensuring they can handle the heat and keep performing when the pressure’s on. The chrome-moly hub is heat-treated too, giving it the strength and durability you want when you’re out there racing. The lightweight, rigid design means you’ll experience quicker shifts, making that transition between gears feel seamless. Just a heads up though, with the 6-pad design, the engagement can be a bit harsher, but that’s the trade-off for faster shifting—something every racer appreciates.
Installation is straightforward, but if you need a hand, you can check out the instructions here.
