ACT Sport/Race Sprung 4 Pad Kit Honda Civic 1988-1991
$431.00
Free Shipping

Alright, let’s talk about the ACT Sport/Race Sprung 4 Pad Kit (HW4-SPG4). If you’re looking to kick your Honda Civic from 1988 to 1991 up a notch, this clutch kit is where it’s at. It’s got a sport pressure plate that really amps up the clamp load, thanks to a unique diaphragm design. What does that mean for you? Less deflection and a longer clutch life. Plus, they heat-treat the diaphragms through a four-stage process, which is pretty cool—it gives you performance you can count on.

The pressure plate itself is made with precision cover stampings, so you know it’s built to last and hold up under pressure. The 4-pad spring-centered race disc is where the magic happens. It’s designed to dampen torsional vibrations, which means your ride will be quieter, even when you’re pushing it hard. And trust me, it can take a beating without failing, so you can really put the pedal to the metal.

Now, let’s get into the nitty-gritty. This setup does have a harsher engagement, but that’s what makes shifting faster and more responsive. It’s perfect for those smaller engines that need a little extra oomph. The kit is designed for high horsepower street or race use, so if you’re looking to make some serious power, this is a solid choice.
