ACT HD/Race Rigid 6 Pad Kit Mazda Protege | Ford Escort 1990-1996 - ZP2-HDR6

If you’re looking for a clutch that can handle some serious power without breaking a sweat, the ACT HD/Race Rigid 6 Pad Kit ZP2-HDR6 might just be your new best friend. This kit features ACT's Heavy Duty pressure plate, which is known for its robust diaphragm design. This isn’t just marketing fluff; it actually increases clamp load, cuts down on deflection, and helps your clutch last longer. Trust me, you want that kind of reliability when you're pushing your ride to its limits.

What’s neat about these pressure plates is that they go through a four-stage heat-treating process. This means they’re built to perform under pressure—literally. The precision cover stampings give it the rigidity you need for consistent performance. Now, let’s talk about the 6-pad rigid race discs. Made with high-quality ceramic friction materials, these discs are tough cookies. The chrome-moly hub is heat-treated too, so you know it’s built to last. The lightweight design means you’ll be shifting quicker, which is a big deal on the track.

Just a heads up: with the 6-pad rigid race disc, engagement is on the harsher side. That might not be for everyone, but if you're serious about speed, you’ll appreciate the faster shifts. This setup is really recommended for larger clutch sizes since it can absorb more heat, making it a solid choice for those high-performance applications.

Install Instructions:

Features:

  • Light to moderate pedal effort with aggressive engagement—get ready for some gear rattle!
  • Moderate friction life, but it's extended thanks to ACT's unique diaphragm design. Just keep in mind that the rigid design might wear out your spline a bit faster.
  • Carefully engineered and precisely balanced, this kit uses select ceramic materials that can handle high heat for maximum performance.
  • Best suited for race use only—this isn’t your everyday clutch.
  • Every part is 100% clamp load tested and dynamically balanced for reliability at high RPMs.
